knocked me for a six and I was out for over a week.
Still not feeling fully better, but at least I'm not in bed anymore.
at the beginning of this year, God said He was
going to to teach me to fight
and boy has He.
to learn one has to practice, right?
well, I've had a lot of things to practice with.
it's all worth it in the end.
the darkest of nights is always worth
the radiant dawn to follow.
so, I press on and keep my eyes on Jesus
even when things feel blurred and
truth is all topsy-turvy,
He's still worth it.
He's still Love beyond all imagination.
I want to be found faithful.
He's been restoring so much to my broken bleeding heart.
Opening up old scar tissue that I just wanted to ignore.
The kind that is still beating and red and torn
just under the surface.
Gently washing it clean and fighting away the darkness
as He holds me in His arms.
A love I cannot understand,
no matter how hard I try.
I just want to be Lost in Him.

I have missed blogging my 3BT,
so here are my 10BT lately, to make up for time lost.
1. walking along a beautiful beach with 2 people who
embody beauty and love to me.
2. songs that move, shake, mould and break me.
The kind that come straight down from heaven and through
amazing hearts that are in constant pursuit of His heart.
3. walking in the grey, shadowy light of a rainy day,
drinking in the beauty of the fallen amber leaves at my feet
strewn along the path, just for me.
4. siting alone and feeling the brokenness of my heart and
the impending despair that was once such a close
and constant companion, and crying so hard
that I feel my eyes will fall out into my hands,
only to have my Lover say, I'm with you. I cry every tear with you.
5. the pure joy and simplicity of a bento box and green tea.
each bite taking me to new heights of gladness and grinning
like an idiot in the restauran while people look at me and
wonder, what's so great?
6. that joyful moment when the phone rang,
and a precious embodiment of love in my life spoke to me.
I'd been waiting all day for them to call!
7. the restoration of hope in my heart and life.
8. the contrast of colours in nature and people
as the weather turns colder and winter descends
to wrap us in its wonder.
9. feeling the pain in my leg subside, even for a little while
and knowing that it's already healed no matter my experience,
because my Lover heals every disease every time.
10. the ability to give love and to accept love.
and through that, to learn the deeper, mysterious
aspects of its wonder and power.
and one more Beautiful Thing
11. meeting someone who can make me blush,
but not in an embarrassing or gross way. Pure.
I love that.
