Held

This is what it is to be loved.
And to know that the promise was
When everything fell
we'd be held.

This hand is bitterness
We want to
taste it, let the hatred know our sorrow.
The
wise hand opens slowly to lilies of the valley and tomorrow.

If
hope is born of suffering
If this is only the beginning
Can we not wait for one hour watching for our Savior?

This is what it means to be held.
How it feels when the sacred is torn from your life
And
you survive.
This is what it is to be loved
And
to know that the promise was

When everything fell we’d be held.

Too Little Too Late


Saturday morning...I've eaten nothing but junk food so far today, (and been enjoying every bit!). I'm going to a youth group tonight I think, and then I'm going to go to Brisbane either tomorrow mornign or late tonight. Not sure how it will work out.

Things have been very strange lately, very strange. I've found myself thinking about some things that I've always taken for granted up till this point and the reasons behind my taking them for granted. The results are interesting.

Have you ever thought about things and wondered why on earth you'd never thought more deeply about something? Or you'd simply accepted what you'd always heard and then suddenly started thinking about it and formed your own conclusions. And made some thigns that were simply what you'd heard your own thoughts, with a few minor adjustments.

Even though basically the same, having made points of view your own changes them so much!

*sigh*

Enough rambling.

I have a few weeks of hell lined up as the last exam and last assignments come up over the next few weeks. I'm dreading it and lookig forward to it at the same time. Dreading because I know it's hard work but looking forward to because I don't mind hard work and I'm sure I can do it.

Well, there seemed to be a lot more that I wanted to say before I started writing, so I will stop for now.

Maybe I'll be more communicative later...
