It’s been on my mind that there might be another book on my horizon...or maybe a painting....or maybe God is simply asking me to share myself. I don’t know...not yet anyway...but in looking inside, I see myself responding with “yes” a lot more frequently. I don’t have to overthink things because the truth resides in my heart. I simply have to look inward to find it. The stuff that comes into my head... if it doesn’t agree with my heart... is not truth. Knowing that is freedom.
I’ve also come to recognize other things. I know I love and I know the more people who come into my life, the more there are for me to love. There is a fullness within which continues to overflow....a fullness which puts a lump in my throat and brings tears to my eyes. There is a joy which bubbles up all on its own and I find myself happy even when I’m sad. And there is peace....the peace and comfort of knowing God is with me at all times.
There is a hunger. It’s not a gnawing hunger as I once experienced, but a constant hunger...one which insists on being fed...at all times, in all situations. It’s hard to describe, but it’s as if I’ve been invited to sit at table and partake of a never-ending meal.....the meal which fills my soul and gives me all I need and enough to share. Yet, I remain hungry. I am the loaves and fishes with which Jesus fed the multitude.
I don’t know what’s around the corner or if there’s another book on my horizon. I don’t know if I’m being led to another painting. I’m not even sure if I meant to write this as a blog. I’m not really sure of much these days but there is one thing I am very sure of.....one thing I never doubt....God loves me. I am truly blessed. I thought I’d share a bit of that here with you.
