Little Whisperings.

I have been reading Kelly Rae Roberts book, Taking Flight.
It has been good for my soul.
She talks about how our hearts whisper ideas, dreams, hopes and how we have a chance to take ourselves up on the ideas:)
so i am. I'm painting.
lots.

it's summer time...

it has been quite the year...
Pensacola. Sand love. Salt water and healing.
youth and laughter. Sonic happy hour:) being a question asker.
???  
lament. being made into soup. cocoon season. ugh.
Balcs love. RA. 
Urban Younglife. and the Mission Chat. 
Three nephwes.
Canada. Lebanon and Europe.
the gospel becoming mine.  
tears.
learning to be diligent worker and a good steward.
Moments of the Lazarus story coming alive in mine:
Africa. Creating. Dreaming. Resting.
Family at church and family on staff.
family.
coffee, diet coke, and Jesus.
Greek learner and lover. 
friendships; death and new life.
And it is once again time to notice and thank God for his FAITHFULNESS.
Freshman year God's faithfulness was my theme. 
and this year God being enough was my theme. 
i think he has been teaching me to survive and and be thankful for the manna. 
I feel a change of seasons taking place in this heart of mine. 
I think he is beginning to invite me to feast.
After manna, a feast seems like too much. 
But then I remember the Gospel. 
Dave Busby said, " GET A TASTE OF GOD'S HEART FOR YOU."
Taste and See.
taste and see.
TASTE AND SEE! 
So, it is a change of seasons. It is the butterfly convulsing until it is free from the cocoon. It is a butterfly choosing to live in the reality of transformation. it is beauty. 
So, its a new season, a summer season, 
and this summer will be about celebrating Jesus and noticing inspiration
I know God has you where he has you.
But, I guess Im inviting you to join me. 
Invitation are always out there to receive. 
and this is an invitation to feast. 
to fly.
God is faithful. He is enough. and he is more...
