Hey Everyone, I was searching my e-mails for something and came across this old e-mail from mom while I was on my DTS. I thought it too precious not to share with you all. I love you guys :)
"Hi Sweetheart, Hope this finds you feeling well and trusting Jesus. His grace is so amazing. His eyes so piercing. His love for us so purposeful. His cleansing not burning, but purifying like a cool stream. His changes subtle and not overwhelming. He guides in gentleness but His gentleness is not soft and comfortable like His embrace. His gentleness exudes His rich understanding of who we really are. His deep soul calling to our deep soul. Sometimes when I can see the truth so clearly, I want to reach out and pull it into my heart and make it part of me. It doesn't work that way, I run down the road and He allows me to see all that He has ahead. Then I jump and leap at the sweetness of it all but it flies past my hand like a beautiful butterfly. He calls to me, with that big brother laughing voice. Come back here Silly, I turn to see the Truth. There He is down on one knee with arms open wide. I've allowed you to see the truths ahead, not to capture them, but to see they are unattainable. Those are only pictures of the truth. I am the Truth. Glimpses are good. They are fun and exciting. If you want to hold them you need only to hold my hand when we walk. Certainly run ahead, take in the glimpses. Dance in the journey. To attain it all, turn around, take my hand and dance with me. Not before me but with me.
As much as I tried to work the truth into my life this week I still failed not once but twice.(and that's just the ones I'm aware of) How many years to I have to repeat the lesson of Him not me. How long before I get it? It's not wake up and do, its wake up and yield. Hey you're on gotta go..."
