NO FEAR (oh the nike commercials...)

soo. a lot has been going on in my life lately. And yet nothing...
I am in the long and arduous process of learning to live without fear. not in its shadow, not letting it hold me back, not letting it keep me from living and BEing.
no thing, no person, no assumption, no ministry, no organization, no odds, no fear. i will never live and do and be what i was made to do and be if i always assume i am not good enough or pretty enough or competent or useful or skilled in any way.
CONFIDENCE. that is the word of the day. or the year(s). so dog-gone it, i will try out. and i will ask someone to the Red Rose Ball. and i will befriend any and all, even when they don't want me to. i will chase my dreams and Jesus' face whatever that means, however stupid i have to look or humble i have to be made. i will smile, because it is me and Jesus, and what else do i need? i will love, because i can't help but overflow the flood in me. i will dance because i can't help but move with music all around me.
you know, at one point, i thought i was doing these things. and i look back now and see how much futher i can go, how much truer it should be. so someday, i am sure i will look back on where i am headed now, and see how much further i can go and how much truer it should be. i guess that's just the thing they call LIFE.

New

New. Real. Fresh. Smiling. I am happy about this...


I am Yours
and You are mine

that's all I need
it's all I'm after

to live in Your embrace
to walk hand in hand
and heart in heart

with a smile on my face

let this Daughter's Love
reap the Father's Joy

let these open hands find
freedom
let this terrified heart find
wings

in Your embrace

First Football Game...

yay it's a new month! there is something so satisfying about tearing a sheet off of the calender knowing that all the writing on it is over with. it is labor day weekend, and we destroyed western kentucky this afternoon. it was BLAZING hot, and i smell. very bad. there's lots of work to be done this weekend, but i am excited about chilling by the lake too. off to take a shower and spend some more time with Jesus. a little rushed this morning...
