And only now i see the light.
I just want to be an (informal) pit stop holding up a sign, pointing an arrow...
We search and we search, running this race
Exhausting...
We look for pit stops to get a drink, to feel renewed, to stretch, to feel whole, to feel alive...
We never seem to find the right stop.
All along, we've been reading the map that the world handed to us upside down
"World! Why would you do that? I'm so lost...I'm so lost."
I just want to be an
informal
pit stop. Pointing an arrow
                                           the way so many people did for me when I was reading the map upside down..
pointing an arrow
to the only stop where you can truly find a rest room...

and He says, "come...eat, drink... rest." 
The only "stop", where you can unpack your bags
Unpack your heart
And stay. 
"You are so wanted here." He says.
"Come as you are... your tires are flat, your strength is low and I just want to hold you." 

"Stop running...and just be with me. I've already won the race for you..."
  
"I love your eyes..."
"I love your eyes..."

"When you weep, and when you laugh.."
"I love your eyes.."
He says to me.

And I am alive.

And we dance together
because
I find peace in His words and in His arms.


"Be still..." He says.



"I love you so much."


Its looking like a beautiful day.





"It's looking like a beautiful day...."

Inconsistency

I am an inconsistent human being. The only consistent part about me is that I am broken.

Today I'm overwhelmed.
Angry.
Sad.
Unsure
     of well, of it all.

Except one thing.

What have I learned about God today?

God will always be God.
And i will always be in repair.
