just another post on just another day

And I stand here, before you my Lord When I think I’m only just holding on to the hem of your cloak In reality it’s not quite the same If I turned round to face you see heaven and earth Find grace in an instant At your love outburst To see you hold me so tight to your chest Heart wrenching emotions cry out we are blessed And I know in reality you’ve saved me I’ve seen that you see me at my best You’ve given your Son for eternity And to you LORD I give you the rest And as I look to the world, my Lord So distant and partial to the hem of you’re cloak The reality bites down hard I see some hope in the brokenness of earth Need feeding on grace And an outburst of love Some to reach out it arms pull it tight to your chest So that they all know that they are blessed And I know in reality you’ve saved us You see this world at its best You’ve given your son for eternity Lord it’s time to give you the rest
When we see this sleeping world that casts a silent glory we mostly miss the reasons we love it it's all our individual stories **** And then they saw you they saw you there on a moment held fast by those around there memories surrounded opposition ground as there they saw you they could smell you touch you taste you then you spoke to them and their whole beings listened to you soul met God in a moment where clarity was lemon and pancakes wouldnt have tasted better you took them out of the maze You are the only one
It's about the small things in life. Unexpected please, thank you' you thought long lost. General chatter about the weather. Not everything has to be wrong or tough or deep and meaningful It's sometimes all about the small things....
Strange times, require strange chatter. I didn't quite stumble across the old friends, it was partially arranged, not all spur of the moment. The rather lovely lunch, a first try of malaysian cuisine, was delightful and the chatter of a good catch not only enlightening but happy. The weather would be, I was to find out, considered to hot for the likes of small children who have just turned one. But a smile was still given in a moment laughter. Catching up with old friends makes you wonder why you can't stay around for longer, yet to suddenly you are flung back into reality, the constant reminders of change, so near. Saying good bye for to an opportunity that has been really fantastic for me. I've never been so happy to write minutes for any other group in my life! Still keep an eye out for them... they are the norfolk youth fund.
I feel lonely, and scared. I just want some one to help me pick up the pieces of my problems, just to give me a hug. I don't want someone to hold me together forever. Just for now. With time for me to work my head out.  I just want someone to wipe away my tears and make sure I get safely through the night.

Break the glass

Sometimes life throws you tough situations, ones that when people look from the outside they can’t say the problem, it’s like looking through them two way mirrors, where you can see out but past the reflection the person imparts on the mirror they can’t see in. It is then even harder to show the scars from which you also hide behind the glass. It is often when others reflection come into our hearts that we feel most like a failure. We forget all that we can be and only see what is the hard part. Jesus, God, the Holy Spirit each, all and one looks at us with such love, grace and mercy that the glass kind of crumbles. You cascade magnificently into the world of shattered glass, the image is often portrayed with heartbroken melancholy, but you neglect to see that the light plays differently on shattered glass. It gleams brighter than ti ever was whole. God, each, all and one, breaks us down to shine brighter, not with melancholy beauty but pure, open love.
