weapons of chose.

She, fades in to the concreteness of reality and,
Awakes in the early bird singing part of the day, lying
Motionless on her hay. Her arms and legs and head feel heavy, as if they are held down with bricks. Her large green eyes are open wide as
She takes in the silence for only but a moment.

Soon her thoughts begin to pop in… make sure and remember to finish that… oh ya pay that bill… I need to call mom about that… like popcorn in her head, they over take the morning stillness in her mind.

Before the popcorn of the day threatens to invade
Completely, she pulls her led arm to the night stand
Next to her bed. She takes hold of her weapons of chose, her Journal, pen
And, chapter three of Philippians.

Pressing on, despite the gravity plagued body, she writes her to do
List of the day: organize closet, get oil in car changed. Next, some notes of reminder: buy cat food, pay rent, have lunch with Sarah. She doesn’t forget to write her hopes for a new car, and a trip to the beach when spring comes.
Lastly, there is a wrap up of prayer.

She lays aside her pen and pauses for a few more
Moments of calm and quiet. She gazes out the window,
Happy to have the sun with her. She takes in a
Deep breath, and is now armed and ready for this new day.

It was 1980 when my heart & Mind heard His Call.

John 6:35-40 NIV [35] Then Jesus declared, “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty. [36] But as I told you, you have seen me and still you do not believe. [37] All those the Father gives me will come to me, and whoever comes to me I will never drive away. [38] For I have come down from heaven not to do my will but to do the will of him who sent me. [39] And this is the will of him who sent me, that I shall lose none of all those he has given me, but raise them up at the last day. [40] For my Father's will is that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in him shall have eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day.”

Wednesday afternoon

There is a good chance that my rational thought prosess has been taken over my by my over emotional female self! The female emotions are powerful forces, and so often I grow weary of trying to keep them in check. Which I believe all women should do! The only thing that helps me most is my relationship with God and others. All that said, I do feel that female emotions are valuable, and they matter. They give us insight and understanding that often times is not based on how much we know of this world. How we feel should never be discounted or pushed aside because feeling are less important than rational thought. Rational thought is good but it doesn't trump the feelings of others. On to other thoughts, today I am tired! I have been tired for days, and I don't understand why. I have been working out three times a week, when we work out regularly aren't we suposed to gain a bit more energy? ya, that doesn't seem to be happening to me. I really hope there isn't...

I will rest in You!

You bring hope, when there seems none to be found. I step back,and your presents is at my back, and I lean back and rest on your strong chest. My eyes shut and breath comes slow steady and even. I become the giddy young women of my youth filled with an expectant hope of a most amazing romance, and of a someone who wants to share life with me.
