| almost a whole other semester under my belt.
this time next year i'll be getting ready for student teaching...
life is good... and i highly enjoy school... even the homework and tests.
i'm not a big fan of mono though. thankfully that's almost gone.
did i mention that life was hard? not that you already didn't know that.
it's funny... i ask God to stretch me knowing it's going to be hard...
but then i forget i asked him to stretch me and i don't understand why things are more difficult.
i am a funny and dumb character (in a very good way)...
and learning about someone else is fun too... especially when you're learning and growing together.
together... what a wonderful word.
You,
Oh the joys I have with You,
Just being in Your presence.
Or those times I am captivated by You,
Captured by Your beauty.
Your grace...it is astounding.
You constantly move me,
And you Stretch me.
Yet You, You are unchanging.
I deserve less.
But You with Your gentleness,
Always give me more.
Blessingn upon blessing,
Blister upon blister,
You show Yourself in all that is good.
And You stretch me within all the bad,
You with Your bloody, beautiful hands,
With Your walked on, trodded out, persistent feet,
Your strength and Your gentleness,
With Your very essence,
You show me who You are,
How you love me,
Why you love me.
And yet, with every day,
And every instance,
I am blinded,
And yet, I see,
Your gentleness, Your strength
Your grace, Your judgement...
It's in these moments...
I see You. |
