The Journey!

I don’t live in the past, but yet will never forget that the past; helped show how to live our best life… today. Along the way, we sometimes stumble. How we learn to walk the journey with true purpose, how we know how to rise up… stronger; go further than the day before? Whenever I have trouble standing, I lean on my rock; my resting place, firm foundation. Under the canopy, where renewed strength is found. To boldly conquer each step of the journey, not fear what lies ahead. We look to the future, but never fear what it holds. Live in the moment, by not letting it slip away. Even if every step is hidden, by the foggy moments. Let faith be the light, that shines hope on your destiny; even if the way seems unclear. Knowing, only part of what’s truly revealed. What you may not know, becomes true clarity; when the trust is transcended, by normal comprehension!

Dream impossible dreams, believe that all your dreams are truly possible. Have a dream, a clear vision; will help guide the journey. Keep your head down, to show a heart truly humbled; to not take every breath for granted. Raise your hope high, humbly fight the good fight. Life is a journey, sometimes we need to learn how to be still; to hear when your faith is trying to roar. Never let your hope be silenced, let your heart boldly speak truth. Faith gives a heart, the power to conquer every kind of fear. Within the silent moments, when you realize; every heartbeat has its own distinct sound. Strength within each rhythm, and therein lies the resounding voice. Whispers of love, the depth truly felt; when the heart is profoundly moved!

Love the life you live, live the life you get to love. For when it’s all said and done, this life is a journey. Love, what takes you by the heart. A journey, meant to be walked hand and hand… with humility. Humanity, can sometimes journey down the wrong path. Why, every day becomes another choice. Follow your heart, or follow the truth? There’s a difference; love leads the way, but the heart has to choose… to follow. One path brings the heart to the place; where the soul finds freedom, and the soul life abundant. The other, takes a heart down the path called wayward, and a dead end. If the journey, sets your heart in the wrong direction? There’s a place, somewhere in the middle of the journey. When you reach, the proverbial fork in the road; may it be called, a new perspective. The moment, The Journey; the heart with a decision to make!

Fun Friday; The Glue!

Baby baby you, me; two hearts, stuck like glue. May, thirty two years; but it only took my heart a glimpse, to see Forever. My faith in the love, forever strong. My word, my bond; that will never come undone. The thought of that, and to all those who said something different; yeah, just crazy talk. Sure, there’s been some rough times. Some parts, that have needed a little bit more glue. T.L.C, have meant different things. “Tender Loving Care,” what’s applied a high percentage of the time. But there are moments when, Time, Learn, Correction… tape; gives you an opportunity, for a do over. We’ve made it through the hard times. Had to apply a whole lot of love, when the day brought with it the rain. Even when the tears, are part of an accidental forecast. The glue makes for a quick dry, creating an even stronger bond. Two hearts determined, pledged to forever stick together. Baby, baby my heart; forever stuck on you!

Even in the darkest moments, our love still knew how to find each other. Even when a two sided opinion, becomes just one side feeling; it’s just a band-aid fix, the glue going through the test… Stress. Woman, your heart has always seen; how my love has been clingy. Stuck to your heart, just like glue. Even when our two hearts end up, on opposite sides of a sticky situation. Your love will still be fly, my cutie pie. I don’t need any paper, to tell me that. Wax on, wax off; ha. For this love, our hearts will fight. Birth pain, growing pains. The terrible two’s… times three, and of course me. The put up, love showing up. Crazy love, what stuck out so often; what stuck to our hearts… like glue. A wife, a mother; the pouring out of the best inside. From the very start, your love quickly noticed to be; a crucial part of the family glue. Over the years, the glue has definitely been stretched; but always based in elasticity. The love, may not have always been super; but the glue.. Crazy. Fast bonding, but our hearts chose long lasting. Not always sweet love, but still worth sticking to. Sticking around, until old and gray. The gummy years, by any other name; just as sweet!

Girl, your candy love enabled; sticky fingers, so I stole your heart. At first contact, my heart was cemented to your love. Resistance at that point, futile. It was a close encounter, E.T…. phone home. (Estimated Time), within seconds; a heart connection, the call to Daddy God. I’ve found the one, predestined. Some days, became sticky moments. Two hearts in holding pattern, trying to work out the sticking point. What always stuck, deep within the crevices of the love, trust; the true bonding agent. Whenever the trust, seemed like it might fail? God’s love, what kept it from disintegrating. Many came to Test the love, but they couldn’t Drive… us apart. The sticker shock, the commitment; not what they were expecting. The love was strong, and I wasn’t about to let; any of the negativity stick. Whatever they implied, was reinforced with the truth of God’s love. We just let it all, roll off the faith therein. Laughter, an intricate add in. But, not meant to be used as just an adjatiave; to deflect from revealing the depth, within the love. Just meant to help loosen up the love, give the glue a little bit more stickability. But, the most essential component; found within God’s love, what binds two hearts together. If both hearts are willing to recognize, acknowledge that His love truly is; The Glue!

Heart Talk; All I Need!

What is, All I need? Breathing, grateful every day my heart gets to breathe. As wonderful as that is, it’s not all my heart needs; to know that true living, not within every breath. Seeing, such a precious gift. But, what’s truly in having sight? If when the darkness surrounds, my heart still can’t see? If a heart is blinded to the truth, a 20/20 vision; will never help it to see, what it truly needs? Hearing, helps my heart to be moved; by a heartfelt picture, through the sound of music. And even though every day, music helps to soothe my soul. My heart still knows, it’s not all I need. A deep embrace can do so much, but that much to do nothing. If deeply moved is not a part, of what your heart can truly embrace? I have a name, but my name is not what I can truly rely on. But, my heart knows a name; that’s wields true power. Help to navigate the battlefield, to conquer a giant… struggle; trying to get a hold, of my victory!

Money, will help pay the bills; buy some stuff. This one thing I have come to know, my heart will never find true wealth therein. I see it as just a want, not what my heart will need. What will money do for my heart, how can it teach my soul true contentment? Something that can be stolen, truly meaningless. Something so profound, that will last forever… truly priceless. Yes, my heart has truly been blessed; to have a family my soul can hold dear. But the plain and simple truth, that’s not what I can call; my everything. I can say; “I think I can,” ten thousand times. The power of positive thinking, a wonderful step in the right direction. But, that’s not all a heart needs to know. For a soul to be positively changed, to know why you truly can… do all things.

A million hearts can tell me it’s absolutely foolish, to believe in crazy love. That you should never, let any love control your heart. But, knowing the truth that lies therein; gives the freedom to trust. Power is not in what you get to control, but how it can truly free your heart. It’s not about being hopeless, but knowing true devotion. Where can a heart truly hide, when love can see into my soul? Why, your heart needs to push back on what others say. Push past the barriers, to not get get tripped up, by what others call an obstacle. I have friends, but that’s not the best part of waking up. I have a friend, closer than a brother. What my heart has needed to know, I AM… loved. If a heart could know how to love, just a fraction of that kind of love? A heart would truly realize, what good does it truly do a soul. To declare undying love, if the heart doesn’t yet know changed, by Amazing Love? This, just a Heart Talk to say; All I need, You… Lord!

The Compass!

You must think, our hearts are foolish? To keep finding ourselves lost, so many times? Following our own ill-advised path, has led us to this place; wayward. Hearts so far off course, but of course; you have to be open, to be able to truly see. Confusion says, a heart will always have a lack of understanding… in the darkness. Without first knowing the light, is what illuminates an uncertain path. Even a degree of separation, will never get a heart face to face, with the true destination. The days are like sands, of which time can never stop… from slipping away. To leave a lasting footprint, follow the blueprint. You have to stretch out our faith, to know where true hope is found. My words are truly at a loss, to capture the breadth and scope. Why we profoundly need to fix, a broken moral compass. May true love, permanently take us by the heart. The true Compass, how a heart finds Forever!

How can we be so lost, when the way has been made so clear? Hearts tethered to Grace, mercy forever leading the way? You’re not surprised, how we ended up in this place. Your love knows exactly why, we needed a savior. Even in an unprecedented moment, Your love is still the brightest lighthouse. In, and on the horizon; it will forever be, our beacon of truth. If our hearts are truly open to see, it’s our only hope. Even if we don’t see it, even if a heart doesn’t believe it; Your love is a compass. It’s guiding our hearts, helping us to navigate the pitfalls. Giving us glimpses of hope, within the darkness. Hearts may believe, they just need to rely on a G.P.S. But, what they leave out, of that flawed equation? God. is Positioning. the Sensor. His heart is the instrument, with such a magnetic love. His love the true northern star, that will never steer hearts in the wrong direction. Your love has set the parameters, how to find forever. The scope of Your love, breathtakingly has no limits. Unfathomable, but knowable. What will bring us back to Your heart, Your love; The Compass!

The Vow!

Lady, from the moment we met. It was clear to me, there was something to the encounter. You may not have known it, but I believe your heart took a quick glimpse, into my soul. A racing heart, but stopped by the gaze. The encounter left the soul with a question, for the heart to ponder. Was she the one, that has been part of my dreams? Every time our hearts met, it was our heaven. Your heart, my love; part of a glorious design. I didn’t vow to have you, but there was a chase; you stole my heart. So, what’s a man left to do; vow to love her… forever. A love that has given my heart, strength when I am weak. Much comfort, knowing my soul has your heart to lean on. Your love has been a lighthouse, when I have lost my way. Standing on what’s sure, a heart wide open, your love the treasure. May, the month and a day; we vowed to give forever, so hearts we exchanged!

My love, from the depth of my soul; I tell you this. Your love, all I’ve ever needed. What I am today, you’re very much part of the reason. What I have in you, what makes my heart complete. All my dreams came true, with the love I have found in you. I love you, give me forever to show; it’s more than words can say. Your love is close, so close to my heart. Breathing becomes easier, knowing your love is always there. Helping to take some of the weight, off my chest. Because I feel the love, nestled up against my soul. The place reserved, for the truest love predestined; to get the deepest part of my heart. Two hearts, but one heartbeat. I vowed to keep your love, within the forever place. My heart, until my last breath. No one, will ever be able to take your love. Pry it away, from my undying love. Forever, saved for you. My heart the river, dreaming to find a gentle stream of love; but encountered an ocean, vowing to carry our hearts… into forevermore!

Song Inspired; Every Moment!

Every moment I get to breathe, every moment my heart is awaken. The radiance of Your love, is the light that shines; deep burning the desire. To have Every Moment, to keep Every Moment; a heart forever in an embrace. This is what it means, this is what it truly is. To know dearly loved, a heart held close to your love. Every day, is a moment to flex… my thoughts. But Every Moment, be very pointed. To show my thoughts, don’t get to control the moment. A heart taking the lead, a soul wanting to be led. A heart, breathing deeply, love expanding the soul. Growth seen, deeper becomes the love… with every breadth. A heart saturated, with the color of love. The fragrance laced with the aroma, of an overwhelming peace. If I could bottle it up, what my heart will surely try. If I could contain it, that I wouldn’t hesitate. Even I can’t do it, that doesn’t mean I won’t try. Within every word, therein lies a heartfelt verse. Love captured, in every syllable. Pen down words, every line.. another pent up muse. Poetry in every eMotion, a heart exposed by the love. What was bottled up, no longer contained. Even if I could, how do I put back into my chest. All the love that has forever escaped, between every breath!

Every day, with Every Moment; closer to Your heart, lost in the awe and wonder. Every moment, becomes my end. So in You, I have my beginning. In my heart, the revelation is love. In my soul, the genesis of love revealed. Every day, in the mind the battle rages. Living Every Moment, deep within the love; defeat can never accost my soul. The retreat, and the surrender; into the love found in You. Love, meant to be endearing; last a lifetime. Love, a coming together; the giving of heart and soul. Your love, what profoundly been the change; within Every Moment I breathe. The deeper understanding, hovering over my soul. Your love is my heartbeat, never failing… to astound my soul. Every day, I’m taken by the love. Every Moment, my heart blown away. Your love is the wind, why my soul knows to soar. Every day, Every Moment; within Your love I can stretch my wings, so You can watch my soul take flight. Every day, Every Moment I rise; looking past what’s momentary. Within Your love my heart is encouraged, to be fearless, be the best me… for You. I know I can stand, walk a mile. Shoeless, doesn’t stop a heart to show more… love!

A Mother’s heart, hardwired to love; Every Moment, unconditionally. An inspired love collaboration, between heart and soul. A love so strong, the heart becomes completely intoxicated. A soul slurring words, a heart stumbling… to keep a balance. Beautiful poetry, in every eMotion. A love so intentional, to portray every breath of the love; a muse heartfelt. Deep within the heart, a soul forever moved; by a love intoxication. Captured by every gaze, the fire of love within. Every day, many flaws are seen. Every moment, not about what’s flawed; but what’s deeply felt. Beautiful are the scars, showing a heart where it has been. Rough are some of the days, but every moment yours to embrace. Embedded deep within, what the love has taught. The experience, the memories; what needs to be forever cherished? Knowing how, to extract the deepest moments. Time slips away, like sand; an Hour, just Glass. A moment to reflect upon, but a time to keep moving forward!

February, celebrated as love month; a time to honor, a moment to show the love within. As long as we don’t forget, love is meant to be celebrated every day; and every moment to be cherished. For me, May is more meaningful. Mother’s Day, celebrating a mother’s love. May 1988, when my wife and I got married. Two special opportunity, that I can celebrate our love, and her motherhood! Within the piece, I would like to celebrate all the mothers; Happy Mother’s Day!

Boxes!

Why are so many content, letting others put their heart in a tiny little box? Just because they believe, they know which one is the best fit? As for me, and my heart; it will forever be a proverbial square peg. Squarely focused, on not being a heart; that can fit into any random box. Many have tried, to compartmentalize my heart. Not knowing my heart had learned the art, how to departmentalized fickle feelings. You can’t box in a heart predestined, not to fit into just any mold. When others, try to put your heart into a certain group. So many are try to fit in, but you have to be intentional; for your heart to stand out. Even a cute looking tag, is just another label; choose to never let it stick. I’ve lived through being stereotyped, as so and so. Branded, as being such and such. Even at a young age, my heart knew enough to know. They were just boxes, that an odd shaped heart; would never be able to fit into!

My heart was grounded enough to know, how to think outside of the box. Music became a solace, a song in the night; a melody within my heart. Limited thinking being drown out, through a little boom box. So many have tried, to see through a led based heart. A heart being led to not follow anyone, without the true power to save. A box will always be transparent, when a heart wide open. Knows how to see, through a different lens. We can have desires, passions, hopes, and dreams. But, are they rooted deeply, ventilated through a substantive truth. So they don’t become, a box shelved so long; dry rot becomes the expiration date. Many have called, my kind of thinking square. What Ever… box they try to put me in; didn’t matter. I’m not moved by what others will, or the powers that be. It’s not about will power, but where I get my strength!

Most glove boxes, are packed with things. A wallet, flashlight, insurance, registration, pen, wipes; essentials a vehicle should have. When others come, try to put your heart in a box. Be equipped with the deeper things, the true essentials. Know what’s in your heart, therein lies the truth; your identity? Don’t be scared, to shine your light; when the darkness surrounds. Show that you have, the only insurance policy need. Your soul registration, forever in the book of life. Written down, underlined in red. Even though, we’re living in unprecedented times. One thing is certain, don’t allow your heart; to get boxed in… to a corner. Free your heart, from a one size fills all. Be encouraged to know, you’re more than any label. There are so many dimensions to a heart, don’t be defined; by what how others see you. Let your heart be transform, through a renewed perspective!

The Unprecedented Chill!

The fall is over, but yet there’s; an unprecedented chill… in the air. The days are a little darker, but therein; a radiant light still shines. It’s a time, when the expectation; is the spring forward. But, the time has brought; an unprecedented chill. Hearts expecting a welcomed bloom, but instead; forced to shelter indoors. Trying to ride out the storm, evade the darkness lurking… behind the shadows. Frustration, wants to tell each sudden gust, chill out. But then, a suddenly. On a calm, warm gentle breeze. A whisper is heard, underneath every breath. Peace, heart be still; this is just a season. “The days are fully known, you… deeply loved. Change is inevitable, but this too shall pass.” Yes, even in these chilling days. Let what overwhelms the heart, knowing the length, the height, the depth; the breadth of God’s love. In the midst, of what seems the darkest days. His love is Unequaled, Unparalleled, Unmatched; Undisputed. Even though the coldness, gives off such a harsh feeling; stand your ground. Undistracted devotion, what won’t let it be; just another mind, easily blown away. Hope found, how true breadth is understood. It’s in the knowing, how fear starts to recede. The extraordinary light of God’s love, will never be eclipsed; by any amount of darkness!

I can write about a lot of things, and even though; the temptation is to speak my mind. I have to be intentional, this is about the heart. I have to let my heart, continue to be faithful. Let the love within overflow, and pour out. Don’t allow the flesh, to become the story. Let His love still be the ink, my heart just the pen. So many, are still living in the past. Still living a wilderness experience, even though the Fall… is over! Grace transcends, unprecedented. The chill, but for a time. This is the season, to embrace the Reign. Yes, an overwhelming chill, lingers in the air; but, put it into perspective. Over the surface of the deep, a love still hovers. Soon, and very soon; God’s going to straighten it out. Until then, let the love be at home; nestled up against a restful soul. Even though the darkness, makes it a bit hard to see. The season has changed, it is finished. Each season, seen through every Revaluation and Truth. Even in the unprecedented, even in the uncertainty. Even now, God is… moving!

Beyond, My Dreams!

In my younger days, I used to be a dreamer. The most popular dream, how to be heard, not just seen? Yet, most days in the stillness; it was a heart day dreaming, alone in the silence. A heart young, restless; but at the same time, a soul being stirred within. My heart dreamed dreams, but the vision; my soul couldn’t yet decipher. How could a young heart understand, that one set of footprint in the sand; meant a soul being carried, to meet up with a love destiny? To see true love face to face, that was the dream; see it in its truest form. That was the vision, my heart so desperately tried to see. But day after day, year after year. My heart just found itself, locked in another day dream. I know, that some might call it; “just the heart of a dreamer. But deep down I knew, someday my dreams would become my reality. For even though, young hearts can’t see clearly, my heart held close, my visions of love!

So, why keep dreaming, you ask? You see, within my very being. What resonated so resoundingly, whispers of love. How can a vision come to pass, without a heart first knowing how to dream? A dream is the seed (substance), the vision what is seen (evidence); that it was not just a dream. A heart not yet ready to see, could never ready to behold; a stunning vision of love… it produces. When the love was unveiled, it was no longer a dream; but a breathless vision. A heart wide open to know, that the footprints means; Your love was carrying all my dreams. Your love, what always seemed to capture my imagination. Your heart revealed to be the place, where my soul was always hiding. Whenever I seemed lost, within a day dream. But, it was what my heart needed. For my soul to now know, and see clearly.

The love more than a dream, beyond just a vision. A love forever, always; everything. A love felt, every time it touches; the deeper places of the heart. Moving, within rhythm of every heartbeat. There’s no need, for anybody to pinch me; my soul knows the love is real. I wasn’t just dreaming about a love that could be, but the life I have found therein. The confirmation, forever etched within the crevasses of my heart. The very essence, of what true dreams are made of. My heart has dreams, but every day the vision; living within the breadth of Your love. Nightmares don’t keep me up, but my soul would absolutely toss and turn all night. If at the end of my days, this love wasn’t forever, and a day; but still Beyond, My Dreams!
