Forty Plus Miles

In hope I will rise.  Not in circumstances, but in Jesus.  In faith I continue, of good to come.  In hope I will rise.  I trust of good here, in Jesus, even now.  I believe redemption is happening; I will not be dismayed.  In hope I will rise.  Not in circumstances, but in Jesus.

         Save the low hum of an appliance nearby it is quiet; a stillness that shocks me. This is the still of a hot morning day before I enter a traditional workday. This is a quiet house before running is undertaken, and I know not how to respond to it.          This is where it changes as writing and life shift, as creativity and expression shift. This is where weird words of weird origins are found and plugged in somewhere, somehow.            We walk together around the lake of imagination, creativity and I, dreaming together; little by little we talk and express ideas as we seek expression through internal release of words written here amid a loud and busy world. Note About The Above Piece: The above piece is derived from a need to express and find a constructive release. It's from a piece (the first paragraph) in my notes of my phone I never finished, and later put it together here, combining it with ...

Processing again. On a hard day I struggle.  Where something changes. Entering a new grace here.  Remembering reflection.

I'll pause and play for a while. Eat while I eat from my paws. I wonder why they keep looking at me. At least they aren't attacking me I guess. Eat while I eat from my paws. Running at breakneck speeds I laugh. At least they aren't attacking me I guess. So I continue on and enjoy the day. Running at breakneck speeds I laugh. Jumping from limp to limp I make it a game. So I continue on and enjoy the day.  Running, eating, and laughing some more. Jumping from limp to limp I make it a game. I wonder why they keep looking at me. Running, eating, and laughing some more. I'll pause and play for a while.

       Powerful! Powerful are You Jesus! Wisdom that knows no bounds in Yours! Kind and abundant are You! For compassion and provisions endless are in You! You stoop low to pick us up, to carry us, those those who hope in You, who reach out to You!        You are faithful always, forgiving us of sins and shortcomings! Be exalted Jesus; be exalted! Inspired by Isaiah 40.

          I am an island, a tiny island, in a sea of humanity. I am not insignificant, but I am also not highly impressive. I quietly live, making myself known amongst the noise of living.  Here it is easy to be drowned out, over-looked, even forgotten; sometimes I feel this way.            I am not abandoned though. On heavy days I am not overcome; just refined. On tougher paths I am not defined by the path; I am remade IN INSPITE OF IT. Here I walk; not arrogantly, but confidently in Jesus. I am made whole IN HIM, for He has redeemed me!

             When the only way is through, you let it wash over you, the feeling of hurt and struggle, you acknowledge it's awful; but you don't stop walking. When the only way is through, you admit it's not easy, you even let the valley you're walking through become you to learn how to overcome; you must name your struggle to defeat it. When the only way is through, it's not a welcomed thing, but it can be a healing thing, where you grow stronger in the struggle, learn how to grow and thrive, remembering Jesus never left you alone, He just empowered you to have victory IN HIM as you went through what you thought would defeat you.
