Wisdom

 

Wisdom -

Please come and speak to me
I am waiting at the gates
Expectant at your doorpost
Listening for your voice
I train my ear
Awaken my spirit
And wait
 
I wait with expectation
I will sense your approach
Leaning in
I listen with confident hope
 
I have asked for wisdom
My soul rests in confidence
Your promise is mine
 
I have drawn near
I welcome your voice
Wisdom
Speak to me that I may hear you
 
 
 
“But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all generously and without reproach, and it will be given to him.”                  James 1:5
 
“Draw near to God and He will draw near to you”        James 4:8

Not Subject to Re-Evaluation

Image
  I believe that God exists and that I am connected to Him by faith. I’m living this decision out every day and while there are ups and downs in the journey, it is a decision I do not re-evaluate based on circumstances. There are many decisions like this and for me it is helpful to name them. Sometimes we tend to focus too much on how we feel on a given day or in a specific set of circumstances. Often these feelings cause us to question beliefs and values that we’ve already determined in the past. Here are a few of my non-negotiables; principles that I’ve settled and do not allow myself to reconsider: ·        God is always with me. He speaks to me and listens to me as well.       I don’t always feel Him. I don’t always hear Him, but I know I will again soon. ·              My faith connects me to God and supports all that I do. I have enough faith. Sometimes my faith feels stron...

The Many Kinds of HAPPY

Image
There are many kinds of happy The warm sun on my face when the air is cool Seeing a bird I’ve not seen before and watching it for a while The feeling of warm sand under my feet and the sound of waves The first bite of a favorite food – savoring it   There are many kinds of happiness from people too The warmth of my husband’s touch – a happy that lights a fire inside The presence of friends who know me well – and I am free The sound of my children’s laughter   There is the sudden surprise of happy A card in the mail from a friend A check in the mail – or a gift given unexpectedly Hearing or reading something funny and laughing out loud   And then there is the deep abiding kind of happiness That lingers and gets heavy within you – a good heavy Security – peace – well-being   There is the kind of happy that comes from looking back Remembered happiness Happy memories – that make you feel happy all over again Newness of love – the wonder of love – the growth of love Or...
