What I’m waiting for….
Christmas, peace, family getting together, walking better, eggnog
Music, losing weight, Jesus coming back, hugs, understanding
Always waiting, but maybe,
By always looking forward I’m missing the now
The beauty of right now….the messes, the expectation,
The reaching for something, the trying, the loving
The starting over again new each morning
Knowing that God’s faithfulness is there through it all.

Honesty can scare because there is no hiding
Words and feelings bare and exposed
Wide open
Honesty can heal if honesty is kind
Words and feelings showing care and concern
Wide open
Honesty is found in the face of Love
The One who died for us and all our words and feelings
Arms wide open
Mercy wide open
Heaven wide open

Talking about pain is a funny thing. Some days I want to ignore it, and try to act like I used to. I push through, laugh, pretend, and then collapse in my trusty recliner a few hours or a few minutes later.
Other days, I need to talk. I need to let it out, to vent, to cry, to have someone tell me that it’s going to be alright, to let the volcano erupt a bit. And then rest, and pray, and just be.
The thing I am most grateful for is for my family and my friends who are there for me, whether I’m talking about it, or not. The people who love me irregardless of how far I can walk, or how grumpy I may be acting that day. The ones who can get me laughing. To all of you…..I love you and I appreciate you.
If you are out there in internet world, and need to talk….I am here. And better yet, there is One who will never leave and never forsake you. Jesus is here also, and listening. 🙂 Love, Lisa
