Ideas

There are a few projects I have dreamed up that I am excited about.  I'm going to post them here to remind myself of them and make them a priority.  They probably won't get done till after grad school apps...

"God created this:"

"Image of God"

"Lightbearers"

A Whispered Song

Rain in the morning.
Rain in the evening.
Rain when I want it,
Rain when I don't.
Rain that I expect,
Rain that surprises me.

Drip, drop, the rain goes,
skipping off my face,
hopping down my arm,
dancing,
playing,
jumping,
spinning,
sliding,
running,
washing,
pouring,
wrapping me in its cool wet embrace,
soaking me in love,
hugging my heart,
digging in,
cleansing,
deep.

And I am nothing.
If not for this rain, I am nothing.
It is life, it is joy, it is love itself.
Present in the beginning, present before me.
Present after I am dust, present at the last great flood.

Drip, drop, the rain goes.
I liked the rain.
I once sat and waited for the rain.
To listen to its sounds.
But no more.
Now I crave the rain.
Seeking with a passion that could only be quenched by living water.I wait on its every sound.
Hungry for more.


And when it hurts.
When it breaks.
When my world starts to quake.
Please be there for me.
Oh beautiful rain.
Guide me, as you always have.

And never let me forget that beautiful song.
The melody for which I long.
Drip.
Drop.
Drip.
Drop.
