today my spirit is discontent.

i am not satisfied.

something missing.  something deeper missing.  it grips me.

something words cannot articulate.

i crave God.  i am thirsty for Him.  my life longs for more. 

i long to encounter Him in fresh ways.
i long for something beyond the daily life.

i'm standing in a wave pool when i long for the sea



yet, my thirst goes unquenched.  He said He would but

my mouth is dry.
//like the deer pants for flowing streams
i am just so thirsty.

i am unsettled.

but i know, so deeply i know, He will come.

my lover, my king,

He will come because He said He would.

He will fulfill//


and i will rest in truth.


{{this i recall to my mind,
therefore I have hope.}}
as surely as the sun rises, He will appear; He will come to us like the winter rains, like the spring rains that water the earth. hosea 6:3

    Picture

    Skipping like a calf loosed from its stall,

    I’m free to love once and for all
    And even when I fall I’ll get back up
    For the joy that overflows my cup 
    Heaven filled me with more than enough
    Broke down my levees and my bluffs
    Let the flood wash me.
