About Me

My photo
Hi I am a Christian, a nurse, the mother of two grown children and two grand daughters, one grandson, and 3 dogs. I love people and have a huge heart. So why am I blogging? Well I've been told that I need to publish my writings. This seemed to be the easiest way to do that. Also, I want to get out there and live life to the fullest. Empty nests are great because now I get to explore the world. I'm starting right here on my computer. So come along with me and as I learn to fly we'll soar together!

11/12/10 ahhhhh


So this is faith
This black hole place of void
No feelings backing strength of purpose
Unhinged and loosed from standard “Christian” living
For all intents and purposes – seemingly – alone
And totally out of control
Ha! Control. The illusive delusion we all strive for.
What made me think I’d find it anyway?
That shifting soil not worth the build
But unseen rock the only stability in truth
So yeah, no feelings here – just blah
And all that’s left to go on
Is what I know, I know, I know
That He will never let me go

I’d rather be here where love not felt is certain,
than in a world full of frivilous polite conversation.
Don’t shake my hand, just look me in the eye. 
I want to see the Jesus who lives in you.
Or else to see your need of Him – laid bare your honest heart.
In which case I’ll share what I have, His love for you unending.
And you can mark the place, like me, where everything goes haywire
And up becomes down – left – right, just so you learn to yield
And lean on hands unseen, voice unheard, arms untouched
That are more solid than any universe of His creation
And know what you know, you know, you know
That He will never let you go

Yup.
