When you literally watch as words turn into something you can see, it is a spectacular thing. Something resounds inside you. Something has just been transformed into truth, into reality before your very eyes.
It is like watching a wilderness blossom. To have something that desolate oozing life.... How could we have been so blind as to not see its transformation earlier? It is interesting how few expectations I came here with, I thought I was coming here for more faith.... for more- I don't even think I knew or tried to lay claim that I knew all the lessons God would be teaching me. Funny how the lessons never look quite the way you think they should. Faith is lived out in the practicalities of life. For all the knowledge gained from books, I sometimes think the conversations and relationships we have with others reach much more profound depths than they do.
I am sitting on a couch, listening to Christmas music, wrapped in a warm fuzzy blanket....with practically no motivation to do anything besides take a nap. Deep thinking is not within my realm of possibilities nor wants at the moment. Which is why I am going to elaborate on thoughts later. Right now I am perfectly happy and content with a couch and a warm fuzzy blanket and peace.
The joys of simplicity.
