A Life lived out loud
needs an out loud type journal.
Public record? Meh.

You sent me to
the scariest corner of reality
HERE
You walked right next to me
saying
"Be still, and know that I am God."

There's no HERE I could find
where You aren't already waiting.

Oh dear little stressball,
turn your CRAZY into praise.
Turn your worry into worship.
Breathe in redemption, let it stick.
Breathe out restoration.
Go change the world.

release angry fists
for the joy of the great King
He has set you free

Clear and consistent,
obviously You.
Sometimes, Your voice is the whirlwind.
But often the whisper.
Always for Your glory.

Train my ears to listen.
Teach my heart to heed.
Make me go where You would have me go.
Use me for Your purpose,
following with confidence.

the map on the wall is starting to look like
poorly hung wallpaper.
the pictures, too
are slowly creeping down.

looks like its time
to move again.

somedays I wish I knew
my zipcode
without checking
my license.

I just don't want to be
Left out.

Every day needs an adventure.
Sometimes, I get jealous of the
Other opportunities.
Comparing.

And my skills can only keep up with my
Experience.

Mountains.
Rivers.
Marriages.
There are some adventures you just can't solo.

Give me the right perspective
When I'm running trails alone.
Remind me where value is born.
