Courage to Change

Suddenly you find yourself reeling in the very moment when everything changes.

And there may never be any words to explain what just happened.

This may be what some call "surreal".

But here you are.

And God is being big and He's being loud and He's pulling back the cover of Heaven to give you a glimpse at His plan.

You've been driving down the long, straight highway for miles and months.

In a moment, a sharp right turn is made.

The one you knew would be made eventually.  You just didn't know when.

Suddenly...

"one day"

is today.

And the Father in Heaven is speaking in sweet, familiar ways about big, scary things.

Wrap your mind around it.

Even still, on this side of the story, all the connections won't make sense.

But something is changing.

Even now Im afraid Im going to forget the details.

And in the same breath I know,

This is not my story.  But it is mine to tell.

To know and tell well.

I will know it by heart.

"There's this song in my heart.

For a moment I forgot how good our Father is, that He equips those He calls.

That He knows the plans He has for me. Created me the way I am for a purpose.

And if I seek Him, I will find Him when I seek Him with all my heart.

Wholeheartedly I will run this race. I will not miss His calling. (Jan 24 2011)"
