BE
I'm sitting here in the dark, the lights are out, I'm home alone, well home alone of adult company! On my chest is my sleeping daughter, so fragile and so small yet so full of complexity and incredible design. She really is a miracle! And as I sit I don't really want to move I want to stay in this moment for as long as I can there will be a time when a sleeping baby in my chest is no longer and option, and in the same breathe I'm thinking as I'm writing this that this isn't very spiritual, there isn't s deep revelation that one can share to reflect the glory of God, or to draw people closer to him and as I'm writing this (on an incredibly small screen might I add ) I say STOP.. this is a moment that I won't ever get back, this is a moment that in all of history will never take place again. It will never again be 9.05pm Thursday the 9th February 2017. Never again will this moment be upon me, so often in life I rush, I'm always on to the next task while doing my current task. So often my brain is thinking and comparing, analyzing and overthinking when really all I need to do is be! Be in this moment bask in the complexity of a tiny human made so intricately by a glorious designer, bask in the silence that is the end of the day, bask in a moment where it's just me... so as I sit and as I breathe I focus on The silence and in that silence there lies peace, a peace and a security that I am indeed loved beyond measure, I am indeed enough and I am indeed holy enough. Among the holiness there is life, a life to be lived that is worthy of the calling and worthy of the price Jesus paid, a life that is destined and created to bring glory to the one true living God but it is life and a life to be lived! And sometimes to live is just to be.
