"Times are a 'changin'..."

Leaves change, He doesn't.
He is Faithful, so is he.
he is colorful, just like the leaves.


My life has been a whirlwind of plans, thoughts, frustrations, and lessons lately. It feels like I'm learning to love and loose all over again, on several levels. Refreshing is too light a word, but that's the only thing that I feel that describes it. It takes me so long to realize things and to put them into practice, but I'm seeing that that's just part of learning. So I'm getting over that.

The beauty of the Lord has been made more real to me over the past few weeks. I sensed a transition and I had to take it. To keep going the direction I was going... I would die. I could guess a million different reasons why this is, but that's not of real importance to me.
I see him in the faces of people now.
I hear him in conversations.
I feel him when I pray.
I taste him in the sweetness of worship.
I smell him in doing ministry.

And to you, I say:

I have not stopped giving thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers. I k e e p a s k i ng that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better. I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, and his incomparably great power for us who believe.

He's not just good to me, but to those around me and He's coming through and will continue to, even when we don't pay attention to Him.
