Forty Plus Miles

       On the eve of something, I feel it; a transition before breakthrough, so I write through. On the start before success, starting again, to make way into a new felt, on the eve of something.

           Glass that ripples. Light that enters and I am listening, listening as grace returns in a warm day from an otherwise cold winter start. Glass ripples in water shown beautiful and inviting to a tired soul as mine. "Rest, even if only for a moment."; and I listen to hope's invitation and pause in the short moment of renewal on an otherwise busy day. Here there is mercy. Here there is renewal. Here I am restored; even in the short moments such as this one along the lakeside where I am working at a house for a short time. Thank You Jesus for renewal and rest!  Sidenote: If any of the writing on this blog has made a good impact on your life in someway (EVEN if it was something you may have enjoyed reading for a particular reason), please feel free to share this blog with someone else who could be blessed also.

            Car after car and I'm waiting, somewhere in a night transition between a busy six day week of work, cold, and running that seems to never end. Stop then go and I'm in between, waiting for some provision for my family and I, wondering when the rest will be. Lights that pierce the night fast approaching remind me to hope, for the darkness of the unknown and the in between seasons will not last; rest will come.             Change comes and goes, but hope remains to all who will believe it; and I believe it. I know the rest will come; in the meantime in between time I'll take every second and minute offered to find restoration and renewal for my worn soul and body.  Sidenote: If any of the writing on this blog has made a good impact on your life in someway (EVEN if it was something you may have enjoyed reading for a particular reason), please feel free to share this blog with someone else who could be blessed also....

               Tired. Tired. Trials trying. Trials tough. Tired, torn; trials trying, trying to take down. Heavy, hard; hope happens however. Hope happens here. Faith found. Mercy momentarily. Healing here. Jesus justifies; delivers.  Sidenote: If any of the writing on this blog has made a good impact on your life in someway (EVEN if it was something you may have enjoyed reading for a particular reason), please feel free to share this blog with someone else who could be blessed also.

         Just live, in the going, listening as Jesus leads. Just be, present in each moment, as much as possible. Just live; pausing for longer when needed.

        This poem (below) is written in response to a writing prompt recently given where you have to describe the taste of a surprising food in the most creative way. Enjoy. How (Poetry) How does one describe such a taste, from such an unassuming fruit? How does one give explanation to such a tiny thing? Just write as you think, A slap in the face, then the kindest hug; this is how to describe a Kiwi's taste.
