For A Time...

For a time...

• I'd like to crawl under those wings that we sing and read about in Scripture, to Hide under His shadow, to rest. 

For a time...

• I'd like to run into that strong tower, find a nice warm corner and cozy into it, to rest.

For a time...

• I'd like everything to go back to the way it was...

...Or maybe not.

I keep having this thought over and over of those who Love much Lose much.  A recurring thought that the deepest of human emotion, however good or however bad, awakens us to deeper emotion.  What I mean, to love someone, when something happens, to grieve for them so deeply.  But through that grief, see so much more value and meaning in the everyday, the small, the minuscule.  Those things that were so important - they're no longer that important.  Those moments with family, with friends, with acquaintances, there's so much more value in those relationships. 

All I can say is that I've never felt this much emotion in my life.

So, for a time...

• I will continue to allow God to do what He is doing in me - refining me in His fire - to bring me out purified, to build beauty from these ashes, to comfort me in my mourning.
