childhood

little girl sitting on a stair
ragged dress and messy hair
walls around and nothing makes sense
far apart

only when i
dont make sense
a rage builds up from you

and
nothing
happens.

i just wish you'd hold me no matter what.

eternal





i find myself humbled before the King.

i find myself broken at His feet.

i find this eternal, timeless, present beauty in His makers mark.

His seal upon our hearts

His reflection in all creation

i find beauty in revelation

i find my view shifting.

vertical pictures


wreckless abandonment.
childhood wonderment.
sunup.
gentle presence.

recent photos i've taken

half empty ? half full ? how big is the glass anyway ?
baby joy.
krinkly green with gentle fade.
steadfast.
uncomfortable rest.

pelting river pains

when droplets of youth fall from the sky
and absorb into your very being.
the autumn leaves are swept up in reverse
baggage claim seems so far away
and even when peace is something you carry
adoration takes cover
as pelting river pains come from all directions
leaving without warning
but broken bones heal so much more strong than before

no more following the wind
follow the rock
follow the One who tells mountains to move and they obey

His eyes cannot be described.
I will not sing of what He looks like until I see first hand
but I know with a spirit so Holy, He must be worthy of adoration
He must be beautiful.
He must shine brighter than anything my eyes have ever known
He must be love.
He is love
