Light of Love

Every dark road has a light that eventually appears. Sometimes one must walk in the dark for days, months, even years before they see a glimpse of the light. But once the glimpse is in view...the road left behind doesn't seem as important as it was when one was walking it. The glimpse broadens and is now a shining light of hope. It's the light that brightens the day and allows one to fully embrace the humanness of life. To walk a long, dark road can be filled with strife and hardship. One has to continue because the light calls out their name. For when the light speaks, one must obey. When one obeys they have hope that bridges the gap that allows the light to expand and show them a greater thing about life...which ultimately leads to love.

Without ever embracing the dark....one could never triumph in the light...and feel the joy that surrounds the heart. It is a gift that comes from above...a story that is written with love.

To whomever reads:
There is a story for you. One that radiates a light of love. It sings a joyous tune and fills the heart with many songs. It speaks of hope and allows love to call out your name.

Faithful Trust

It's been a long month...a road that continually stretches my ability to stand on my own two feet. Not sure as to why this has continually been a pattern in the last several years, but it has surely struck my perception of the world. I am at a cross roads...truly trying to make decisions about my life to better myself not only now, but for a family that I desire to have in my future. I am hoping that the sacrifices I have made in recent years will allow my future to be brighter than I could ever imagine. It has been a road of trust...

So, I continually have found myself saying...

" I place my trust in the Lord."

For the future is so often unclear...and so many times I have failed to really trust in Him...but the Lord always has been faithful to me and given me a faithful trust that He will see me through.

So this time... I place my trust in the Lord...and know that He holds the Hope of my future. Thank you for the long road and teaching me the lesson of faithful trust.
