| sometimes it's the frailty,
and sometimes it's the brevity
other times it's the immensity of joy
or pain...
of late, i've been struck by the unpredictability of life...
thank God, he's told me all along that it's just a grand adventure
with risk requiring faith, often not by sight
funny how my dad's told me several times these past few weeks that
the most precious thing about life is it's unpredictability.
thank God, it's all about Him and not about us.

| what a peaceful morning. sitting here in my sun-filled apartment, still lingering in the after-glow of having lifegroup here last night...time spent going through a year of xanga entries. and i find myself inspired to write my thoughts (to add to this blessed record):
jesus, it sure has been an amazing year! just 6 months ago, in my "all is in up in the air" season, i had no idea i would be in the place where i am. and in a time when economic hardship is the norm, i am so thankful to have all that is around me--place to live, friends, family. and what a place to live--near such an exciting, fun, real community. *sigh* so blessed. jesus, may these blessings you've given me flow out to be blessings to those you long to pull into your heart and fellowship. for it really is all doable (the crazy highs and lows of life) when walked in the fellowship of brothers and sisters...and you, jesus!  happy (almost) resurrection sunday! *high five* Abba!
and now to enjoy the splendor of your beauty in a hike this morning!

| seconds tick into the night
my body dead tired but my mind restless
waiting for a word, for some confirmation
i must have a fleece somewhere around here
to throw outside tonight on my balcony
does it ever feel like to you that the pearls
that were so painstakingly collected in life
are rolling around, and if you don't snatch them,
they'll head down the drain?
or if you don't get a move on into your dreams
they'll "poof" be gone?
if you only had several months to live it out
what would you do?
who am i anyway?
nothing much, just a cracked jar
two eyes--yearning to see Beauty
two hands--doing anything to bring Him closer
two feet--itching to get a move on
a heart conquered--longing to receive more
and a mind--in need of oh so much wisdom
