A Long Walk
I had intended to write something about God changing His mind for this post. Pretty hefty topic and I don’t think I’m up to the task, so I’ll just say that I believe He does. And I’m glad He does. Tomorrow I need a long, long walk. I need to talk to Him and ask Him to change the course of some things. I need woods and to feel my heart beat extra hard. I will explain that His mercy is what the world will know Him by, just like He says. Then I will ask it for myself and people I love.

Michelle, this is beautiful. Some days I feel like giving up…today has been one of those days. Even as I sat in church and participated in the liturgy I felt all alone. I need to reconnect–somehow. Thank you for the reminder. 🙂
You're welcome. I needed it too. I get hardened by things happening around me so easily that every few weeks (or days.. or hours) I have to pour my heart out and get some perspective. I told my husband yesterday, "Today I was very human." I am.
i hope you had a good and productive time. I've been in desperate need to do this as I've allowed life to suck my spirit dry… I once felt so close to Him, and now I feel so distant. My own fault, but a challenge to change it, nonetheless. I hope things work out for you whatever your troubles.
The thing is, Mon, it's no big crisis or tragedy, just the dryness you spoke of. Once in a while I realize I'm accepting a lot of things I could bring before Him and maybe He'll change them or at least give me that perspective about it. I'm ok, just needed to tank up 🙂
