today’s entry

i just feel a little slow today…it is a monday and the clouds are dominating the air.

but i have solace in the chance to write. that i can put words to paper and share my heart.

i think it is one of life’s most courageous acts. to share the heart. to share the soul with a world that more and more doesn’t feel safe.

but if i want the world to feel more safe, i feel as if i need to get what feels safe to me…out in the world.

i can’t control the response. my God is with me no matter where i go. in fact i can feel him on my shoulder writing saying, my son, look at you go!

what a gift.

it sure makes me wonder…maybe the more we share our hearts, maybe the more our world will change?

today, i don’t want to be a person that slows down the restoration of the world…a day where everyone is full of peace, purpose and joy. i just want these words to draw me and you closer to the ways of Jesus.

as i write, i listen to a classical music song and hear the strings slowly move. i so love violin, piano and the cello together. i sometimes feel i can hear and feel the emotions of the human heart on the other end.

it always settles me…maybe because for a moment it feels like i feel a part of their journey. i love to feel a part of someone’s journey.

thanks for being with me today. i praise God for the chance to write. that in just a few minutes these words and letters come out of me. that my wild mind full of ideas and sometimes confusion all of sudden has

clarity.

i hope we all will start to put what feels safe to us out in the world. maybe the more we do that are world will become more safe and people can finally feel at home.

if you ever doubt yourself just know i do too…but at all times our Lord and savior Jesus Christ is with us. Emmanuel, Emmanuel, Emmanuel…

patting us on the back saying, my son, my daughter, you got this…because through me there is no limit in how far you can go!

much love,
