Ezekiel 42 - 44; Revelation 22

Here's the deal....I feel young and hip and relevant...and I think I come across ancient and out of date...how the heck did that happen.

how did it happen that I fell in love w/the Bible...
how did it happen that I fell in love w/ Jesus...w/the God of the Bible who sent Jesus...
how did it happen that in that falling in love I came out of touch??
how did it happen that someone who lives wanting to fit is becoming OK...well most days OK w/possibly never fitting... but seeking to help others FIT...to helping them find the passions that You placed in them trusting that THAT passion will guide them to where they fit...
how did it happen that someone who wants to be mentored ended up mentoring, Spirituallly parenting, discipling others??....
how did it happen that in that, my capacity and love grows ...what seems to be daily....and watching Hubs grow too???
how did it happen that I cry everyday but am happier and more content than I ever dreamed possible...

how did all this happen???

I don't know and so I write here and hope that in REAL LIFE what I write here makes me more loving and hip and young and relevant.....
Just being honest....this is the stuff I feel......the confusion I swim in most days....the tight rope I walk....
the desire to and resistance to falling face down....I pray today to simply fall face down...

lyrics Welcomed In (Fall Face Down)
Welcomed in to the courts of the king,
I've been ushered into your presence.
Lord, I stand on your merciful gound,
Yet with every step tread with reverence.
There is none in heavens like you,
And upon the earth, who's your equal?
You are far above,
You're the highest of heights,
And i'm bowing down to exalt you.
And I'll fall facedown,
As Your glory shines around.
Yes I'll fall facedown,
As your glory shines around.
Let your glory shine around,
Let you glory shine around.
King of glory here be found, King of glory.
