Fill me up, Lord

"You will seek me, & find me when you seek me w/ all your heart," God says. But that is not the whole story. I'm not just a searcher. I'm also a hider. You too. We have to come face-to-face w/ our tendency to hide, to get lost. ~John Ortberg, Love Beyond Reason

10 hours before, after, and during

I'm a hide-r. That's a fact. Going out to the party is not my thing. It's the worrying before, worrying during, and the worrying after. Like 10 years after. 10 minutes after. 10 weeks after. It's too much.

It's a balancing act.... empty spaces, not too many, not too few... just enough....

Walking on a tight rope....

Just give me the remote so I can freeze the scene
and
hide.

“Have this same attitude in yourselves which was in Christ Jesus , who, although He existed in the form and unchanging essence of God , did not regard equality with God a thing to be grasped or asserted ; but emptied Himself by assuming the form of a bond-servant, and being made in the likeness of men . After He was found in outward appearance as a man , He humbled Himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.” (Philippians 2:5-8)
