desert bound

I love the way God chooses to work. I love His ideas... and the way He cares about even the seemingly trivial things in my life. I love His words and how He speaks them. I love His hands and what they create. I love His people, and what they create. I love that He loves to bless me. And, now, finally, I love that He loves me. I know now that I am worthy of His love, because I was created by Him, and He only creates things that are good.

God is romancing me. 
He is wooing me. 
He is alluring me into a desert.
It will not be dry and barren. I will not be lost and thirsty.
It will be satisfying and peaceful. I will be found and filled.
Just me and my Husband.


"The life that I have
Is all that I have
And the life that I have
Is Yours and Yours and Yours
The love that I have
Of the life that I have
Is Yours and Yours and Yours
A sleep I shall have
A rest I shall have
Yet death will be but a pause
For the peace of my years
In the long green grass
Will be Yours and Yours and Yours."
 - "The Life That I Have", a poem by Leo Marks
