Our lives are NOT to be
centered around the jobs we have...
...the careers we often allow to have first priority
in our days.
Yet, I am a single woman
who is the only one
to bring home the bacon
or in my case the chicken
and spinach salad sprinkled
with feta cheese...
Our lives are to be centered around our CALLINGS
the gifts,
the passions,
God draws us to
like gravity...
like a moth
to a flame...
like a man
drawn to
a woman,
Adam drawn
to Eve...
God within
us stirred,
aching,
longing
for more
than this world
this earth
can offer.
We are made for a world
beyond this world...
A heavenly place
supernatural...
yet more real
than we can imagine.
Today, somehow, my world
regained balance.
Surely it is grace, Godlike,
righting my world.
For a short while it
seemed I'd fallen into a world within
a snow globe, vigorously
shaken by a young one,
innocently turned upside down...
Slowly
Jesus brought divine
balance...
He does not desire
us to walk
tightrope,
tense,
but desires
us to rest,
trusting
relaxing
our hold
on this world
and tightening
our hold
on His hands.
