Running...

You on the beach
Me in the boat
But there You are
Calling out to me

I see it is You
I turn
I jump
I run
Nothing else matters

I run to You
I look in Your face


I want to know
How You might look at me
What You might say to me
Please...speak to me

Speak to me
Say the words I long to hear
Say the words I need to hear

Invite me once again
To follow only You
Ignoring all others


(inspired by...John 21)

A Decision...

A decision made
For sanity
For boundaries
For time and space to recover and heal
In the working through to forgiveness and restoration
I still am not sure where the boundaries are
And that I could do better next time
So...in spite of the "need" that compels
I chose for space
Distance from the hassle
And heart struggle
Until perspective can be regained
Reconciliation at a slower
More measured pace

The decision is somewhat painful
And yet hopeful
I feel a peace
I had not quite expected
