good words*

I was angry with my friend:
I told my wrath, my wrath did end.
I was angry with my foe:
I told it not, my wrath did grow.

William Blake

what this blog is:

In a nutshell, it's about trusting God in the dark.

Expanding that thought, it's a venue of expression for this complex tangle of heart, mind, body, & spirit as I journey through the wilderness of faith toward the heart of God. As I purposefully wander through this wild & unexplored territory, expect displays of raw humanity: to see doubts aired, tears on display, & my brokenness laid bare. Knowing God to be in the habit of defying my expections, I offer my open heart and open hands. I pray for an audacious willingness to embrace the truth, to trust Him ruthlessly, even at the cost of turning life as I know it upside-down.

Dedicated to the glory of Elohim, God on High. To Him who keeps His covenant of love, for Abba who is compassionate & tender with my brokenness. For Jehovah-Shalom, the Lord of Peace; to El Shaddai, God All-Sufficient. For Yahweh, who is always moved by goodness & in whom Love has its beginning and end. For Him who defies definition ...

This is my humble offering.
