4:29p - Just to Know Him...
Every time I begin to type out my thoughts here on LiveJournal, I am flooded with a deep desire to describe every aspect of my blessed life to anyone who dares to read these paragraphs. :) But there is no way. I told Chloe recently that it's like scooping up a handful of snow from the top of a mountain and using it to try and describe the mountain. God Himself is whispering so many new things to my heart, and I can barely breathe--I am so astounded by the depth of His care for me, the richness of His sweet redemption that continues to save me, moment by moment. When I come and sit and try to explain it, I can't. And it's agony to me.
What am I trying to say? Are words even enough? Words printed in orderly lines on a glowing screen, with no inflection of voice and no eyes to carry the dimension of meaning that is in my heart, desperately trying to come out... God has been so kind to me. So very kind. He's showing me a twist in the road that I hadn't seen from my place before, and I am intrigued by this new understanding of what my walk with Him is growing into. It's beyond both my imagination and my expression. God really will give me all that my heart desires. To know Him.
He brings me in a way I know not, into deserts cracked with heat, only to show me the miracle of new rivers. This life is like nothing I can describe to you. It has captured my heart and my imagination, and made both dance.
And that's all I can say.
