Why not get hurt.

Watching the barriers grow, not unlike a deer in headlights. It's a feeling like: "You'd better run like hell or you're going to get trapped." But if I run, i'll never know what would have happened if I stayed... is unsatisfied curiosity better that safety? Or will I find myself burned and be like: "Oh, so that's what happens."

Therefore.

2013

It will be a very intense year.

Therefore:

Soak in God's word each day, even when it becomes monotonous...
like canned peaches, it will taste good later.

Believe in healing and miracles,
understanding that sometimes they take time.

In hindsight, learn Insight.
In foresight, learn patience and a sense of humor.

For God knows the plans He has for you...

Torn between the Earth and the Sky

God help me, i'm terrified.

And He does, he always does. When faced with a choice: a stable job and a place to live or a risky but promising endeavor... what is there to do but pray.

If I stayed here on the ground, I'd always wonder what would have happened if I took the road to the sky. We always look up to the skies. But never down at the earth, which supports us daily.

When we look at the sky we wish we could go there. When in the sky, looking at earth we wonder at how far we've come. So for myself, the choice is obvious.

The Earth is stable, yes. But do I find my security in security? No. I find it in God... in Yahweh.  And He resides in the skies as well.
