| it's been such a long time coming...so close at hand, despite my desperate runnings.
doubts often accompany our daily life, talents are longed after, but gifts overwhelm and awe. Jesus created each individual on this earth, with a small, often huge, piece of His own heart. and the desires and aches inside of that gift will never leave you...you can run and hide, only to be found. you can ignore it every day of your life, hope to grow numb to it, but mark my word, it will sit quietly under the surface, until you realize it will always be a part of you. and sometimes, it will be more than you believe you can take...it will overwhelm you, plague you, amaze you. and that is the beauty of Jesus--He knows exactly what each one of us needs, and it is often the thing that will break us that will heal us...if somehow we can learn to accept it, as the gift it is, and embrace the accompanying pain that brings us to life, i think our lives will be more full than we could ever imagine.
my passions are undefined, as much as i wish i could put into words what my heart feels, it's nearly impossible...because my gift is only for me. only my heart will know exactly what i was meant to do, and only my heart will understand the exquisite equipping needed to perform such a beautiful task. so as much as i'm overwhelmed in this moment--as much as i've spent hours of moments praying and wishing that i didn't feel this way, that He had chosen someone else--i'm so blessed to have been given this gift...because as much as it crushes my spirit, it pulls me to my feet in my darkest moments. it gives me hope...because if i feel so much pain over such conditions, if i love people that i have never met in a way that will forever plague me, i am only more able to see that Jesus could only feel such love and pain a thousand times more strongly than myself. and that gives me the peace and resolution to be grateful for such a gift, to such an undeserving heart.

| my purpose for being here on earth so often escapes me. any words hiding in my mind may have once been clever clarity, but their invisible imprint upon paper leaves me feeling emptier than when i began. everyone has heard "time will tell" or "time will heal" but what do we do and where do we go when our aches and pains do not simply disappear with time? what happens when we lose our feelings of infinity? how does one move forward with so much baggage hanging from every possible limb? please tell me. tell me how we hold onto our sanctity, our hope, and especially our joy, in such a hopeless world.
sometimes it feels so impossible to believe. and at the end of the day, it's the only choice i have left.

| We stood so tall
We caught a plane
By the wing and held it safe
Until we found it a place to land
We laid across the ocean wide
Bridged the gap in record time
People traveled across and kissed our hands
All for love
We become
Larger than lifesize
Wondersome
Great in the eyes of someone
Larger than lifesize we become
Great in the eyes of someone
We smiled so bright the sun went down
Rose above the maddening crowd
Lit the streets with the sweetest glow
We held the globe and made it turn
Wondered through the universe
The men of science observed through telescopes
All for love
We become
Larger than lifesize
Wondersome
Great in the eyes of someone
Larger than lifesize we become
Great in the eyes of someone
Larger than lifesize we become
Larger than lifesize we become
Great in the eyes of someone | | |
