His voice whispers softly and tenderly from a place deep within my heart, I know it
well
On days when I awake and smell the summer rain I feel His
presence while sipping my coffee looking out over the pasture listening to
birds and watching the breeze blowing golden leaves dancing dancing caressing
and embracing spinning all the way to the ground.
I delight in knowing I am not alone though my companions are
4 footed friends. We breathe in the beauty and restfulness of the bounty
that is our home thankful for every moment and every scene He has given us.
Yet my heart is restless and a little sad. I wonder
that I feel this way with all I have to fill it up. It feels a little
like I am ungrateful but that is so untrue. I know that if I never have a
husband that my life is full of love and I am content with the way it is. But
is it a lie to feel a lack? Is it a lie to want more than my 4 footed
companions to fill my days? More than the eternal love of my Father and
that my husband/creator Jesus has given me? I can only believe that He
has made me with this desire and that one day it will either pass or be
fulfilled.
In the mean time strong embraces come from
the deep waters of my heart to tell me that I'm loved beyond any earthly love
could fulfill. Winsome smiles from
an unseen face, music played by hands and heart of the lover of my soul.
I do not think that he would disdain my desires, but for my own heart's
good withhold what could come between us.
Earth is not my home and though I do so enjoy the bounty
given me there is longing that is perhaps for that place and time when we are united
once and for all in eternity.
So I sit with coffee on the front porch looking out over
what beauty has been given me and long for the day when I see those eyes and
feel the touch of the only true love my heart has ever known. It is
enough to have this - and know it I do.
