to sing in the silence: post

post

A friend of mine posted this on her blog about a week ago... it spoke to my heart, in so many ways.

I want to share it with you.

Thanks Chrissy... for your obedience, your love for the Acholi people, and your honest seeking.

Do you hear?
Do you care?
Do you more than check in once in awhile?
Is your heart tugged?
Do you want to do more?
Are you satisfied?
Can you live like this?
Can you feel anything?
Where is your heart?
What would you die for?
What is it that charges you?
Who do you love?
Why do you love?
Who would you fight?
Who would you fight for?
Is it in your nature to show compassion?
Is it in your nature to be passionate?
Does your blood boil? Flow? Soothe?
Is your soul reflective of where your soles step?
Can you really wake up one more day living this life?
Can you really go to sleep knowing what lies ahead tomorrow?
Can anything provoke you to change?
Can anything provoke you to stay the same?
Do you want new or used?
Can you accept where you are at?
Can you move forward?
How does your heart beat?
Whose heartbeat is it?
Does it belong to you?
Where do you begin and end?
How do you begin and end?
This can’t be all of it, can it?

Questions come so easily when I know the answers to the questions I pose. I wonder if these questions race through minds. I wonder how they each are answered. Journeys are amazing…each day is a question with an answer that excites me more and more; only to go and find more to ask. I can never be the same again…never; from Monday to Tuesday; from last year to this year; from 8 years ago to 8 years from now. No. I know the answers only in snippets. Snippets. I get there by knowing the Voice that speaks so clearly to me.

The Holy Spirit is real.
He speaks.
He is the relationship builder.
He speaks differently to each of us - but He speaks.
Stop being layela (stubborn).
You know what you need to do. Do it.
You've been told.
You know you need to cross that Jordan.

You might think you will drown or get attacked by the crocodiles or maybe you have a different journey to take...but He has this for you....He has you. Trust Him. He wouldn't send you anywhere without anything nor anywhere He didn't want you to be.

Come on now. How much more playing around are you going to do before you do what you are supposed to be doing...who you are supposed to be being?
