Our lives are a journey that we walk together not in order to become "good christian women," but rather to draw near to God so that we can reflect His light to those around us. Our stories, our paths, our dreams and our message are all unique. But we hold hands and walk boldly, fearlessly......onward...creating joy, hope, faith and peace in our wake.

What Leaks Out

In life, I'm going to get hit.  Oh, not physically, but by circumstances, troubles, trials, pains, and fears.  And when I get hit, it causes holes.  I want those holes to leak out hope.  Peace.  Joy.  Faith.  I want to be full of such things.  When hit, I don't want bitterness, anger and hatefulness to be what seeps out.  Instead,  I want to get those things out of the way and make a haven for the good stuff.  An abode for the things that I love and desire to be.
So, getting rid of the ugly, icky, nasty stuff is important.  And focusing instead on the good, beautiful and excellent.  I spent too long trying to hold the bad in...that just means that I'm holding onto it.  I don't WANT it!!
I have a life to live and I don't need to carry along worries and other baggage.  Nope.  Travelin' light.
grace to you.
