the journey

elaborating thoughts as i hear the splash of water in what seems to be a distant place. back and forth, one stroke followed by another, another 50 yds complete. my thoughts wander from why, what for, to the enjoyment of the time, imagining the future, the payoff for the training.

i've heard it, you've heard, it's the journey.

the search for your heart, for their heart, for HIS heart, for understanding what it means to live in pain, to understand joy that comes from an unseen dimension of reality. living beyond what seems rationally logical we enter into the life abundant, into kingdom come.

i've heard it, you've heard, it's the journey.

loosely holding onto words that provide handles to grasp. seeking for new understanding, new insight into the fully revealed yet little understood mystery of God. meditating, reading, thinking, conversing, i seek to renew my mind, refresh my heart, and share.

i've heard it, you've heard, it's the journey.

the unraveling of learned thoughts, learned behavoirs, breaking barriers, seeking to let go of the fear that binds me to a self i once clinged to. looking for adventure in the eyes of another, one who will teach me from the mountains they've looked down from and from the valleys they've drudged through.

i've heard it, you've heard, it's the journey.

its embracing brokenness and never wanting to let it go that humility might always be present within the new birthing heart. i seek, i knock, i dream, i laugh, i cry, i yearn, to be bold. to dare to be great in weakness, in humility.

i've heard it, you've heard, it's the journey.
