On Fridays a group of people who love to throw caution to the wind and just write gather to share what five minutes buys them. Just five minutes. Unscripted. Unedited. Real.
Your words. This shared feast.
1. Write for 5 minutes flat – no editing, no over thinking, no backtracking
2. Link back HERE and invite others to join in.
3. Please visit the person who linked up before you & encourage them in their comments. Thems the rules!
OK, are you ready?
The topic is:
GO!
I hope I am willing.
I hope that I can let go of the bonds that hold me tied to the earth and trust that there is a good and prosperous plan to help me soar.
Sometimes I feel like a grumpy child, pouting in the corner, arms crossed, not at all will to go r come or do this or that.
I just want to sit in my funk and not do anything.
It's so very difficult to remove myself from that state of mind.
But I think, that if I am willing...simply willing, God can and will take my hand and lead me forward.
Lead me out of the mire and up onto solid groud.
If I am willing, not struggling against Him, He can help me to soar and reach for lofty dreams and goals that I couldn't even see down in that pit of self-loathing and gloom.
But the first step is my own.
I have to be willing to reach out.
I have to be willing to look up and beyond myself.
I have to be willing to put my hand out and risk no hand reaching back.
But He will help me. I know He will.
He has many times over.
He is always willing to love me back.

Stopping by from FMF. Thank you for beautiful, thoughtful, good-to-hear words today. I understanding that "arms crossed" feeling. But there is such grace in this: "He is always willing to love me back" -- and in that He loves us first.
Thanks, Kelly! I appreciate the comments.
