I was thinking about shadows the other day because I saw a guy sleeping under the shade of a tree near Jan's Steps and I realized that not only do shadows prove the sunshine, but they can also provide shade for others around. It's crazy to think that a dark, cynical shadow for someone can turn into a comforting, shelter-like shade for another
here's what I've been learning(bad resolution) here's what I've been enjoying
I feel like I am getting a massage for my heart as all these tough knots that have accumulated throughout the years are getting loosened up. I am going to be sore, but it will be so revitalizing in the end. It is comforting to know that God disciplines his sons to make them stronger. It is encouraging to know that the hands that hold the world are holding my heart.
Despite my desire to write what I am thinking about and feeling, I don't have the words to yet. But I felt like these pictures, words, and songs encapsulate what I've been coming to understand recently. Maybe you can help me translate these into actual words words, or maybe they are just better stated in this form. I hope this encourages you in some way
Love is patient, love is kind, it does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
