Not yet?

I have felt ready
impatient
tired of the tight, dark spaces
of hiding

I am something,
someone new
shaped by His hand
and His will
the old has passed away

and yet
and yet

there is more to be done
He whispers

and shields me
holds me
His cover of protection
at once both
chains
and comfort

wings stretch forth
drying only as quickly
as He will allow

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new  2 Corinthians 5:17 NKJV



Joining the broken but loved with Brian at Emily's today

I've come from Diana's List (we're both there, and I wanted to meet you!) I am so glad I came. This is just beautiful. I've been thinking about this journey we're all on lately - longing to grow more quickly, knowing it is all in His time.
