The Joy of Waiting

02/16/201902/16/2019Categories Notes, Poems3 Comments on The Joy of Waiting

  Photos by Michelle Wingard  The Joy of Waiting I'm learning to enjoy the wait; to enjoy not knowing what's next. I'm learning that maybe dreams evolve into hopes yet seen, and the path toward hope has curves and swerves rather than a straight course. Perhaps life is not a series of milestones to collect…

“Everybody Always,” by Bob Goff

On The 'Gram

“How great the chasm that lay between us How high the mountain I could not climb In desperation, I turned to heaven And spoke Your name into the night Then through the darkness, Your loving-kindness Tore through the shadows of my soul The work is finished, the end is written Jesus Christ, my living hope Who could imagine so great a mercy? What heart could fathom such boundless grace? The God of ages stepped down from glory To wear my sin and bear my shame The cross has spoken, I am forgiven The King of kings calls me His own Beautiful Savior, I'm Yours forever Jesus Christ, my living hope Hallelujah, praise the One who set me free Hallelujah, death has lost its grip on me You have broken every chain There's salvation in Your name Jesus Christ, my living hope” —Phil Wickham, “Living Hope.” 🌿 — #thehonestpursuit #texassunrise #travelmusic #carplaylist #philwickham #livinghope
Learned how to tie a neck scarf today! I’ve also spent the day summer planning and trying to figure out how I’m going to pay off my student loan debt (yay). 😅 How do you spend your Sundays? Do you meal-prep, clean, do a Bible study, or just have a lazy day? I wanna know! 😊 __ #thehonestpursuit #sundayvibes #neckscarf #target #oldnavy
What a great day to live on purpose! There are so many opportunities to make today count. Open a door, text a friend, say thank you, organize your closet, or read that book you’ve been wanting to read. 🌿 I remember when I was in my high school marching band and the drum major always told me to walk with purpose. I had to know where I was going and be intentional in how I got there. The same is true today. Each breath I take is a gift, and I want to make sure I don’t take that for granted. So here’s to living on purpose! What does that mean to you?✨ __ #thehonestpursuit #liveonpurpose #liveintentionally #qotd
Happy National Day of Prayer! Today on my blog I am sharing a beautiful prayer by John Baillie from his devotional, “A Diary of Private Prayer.” 🌿 __ Though my prayers are often simple conversations with God, John’s prayer inspires me to think deeper and feel deeper in my affections towards God. I love when he says, “in Thy will, O Lord, is my peace.” In God there is peace beyond understanding, and today I am thankful for that truth! __ If you ever need prayer or encouragement, please feel free to DM me or even leave a 💚 in the comments. Thankful for you!! __ #thehonestpursuit #honesttruths #johnbaillie #prayers #nationaldayofprayer #bookshelf
“But you are loved, oh Not because of what you've done, no Even when your heart has run the other way Nothing's gonna change His love And you are wanted Not because you are perfect I know that you don't think you're worth that kind of grace But look into His face you'll know That you are loved.” 🎶“You Are Loved” by Ellie Holcomb 🌜 I’m currently waiting outside a movie theatre to pick up my little sister from the midnight premier of Avengers. As I’m sitting here alone in my car, these words come echoing in my mind. 🌝 I think there’s a reason this song is on repeat in my mind—to remind me that I am LOVED and WANTED. In the same way, YOU are also loved and wanted. Not because of anything that we’ve done alone, but because God loves us so so deeply. You are not just another name to God. He knows YOUR name and my name by heart. It’s hard to even imagine, but it’s true! 💙 So my friend, if you are feeling unloved or unwanted right now, I know how that feels. All I can offer is peace in knowing that the One who created you doesn’t want you to feel that way. Reach out to a friend, invite them in, share the love and keep your heart open. ☺️ If you haven’t heard it yet today, I love YOU! __ #thehonestpursuit #honesttruths #coffeeshopcorners #texassunset #sunset #youareloved
Imago Dei (Latin): made in God’s image.
