backpack

So often what we choose...
To put in our backpacks...

Dictates what we are able to see.

The great joys that are by our side.

The food that another offers...

Can often be overshadowed...

By the weight we choose to carry.

In order to feast.

To see..

Taste...

And enjoy...

The pack MUST be emptied!

Our gaze...

Reset.

Allowing the picture of...

To be enlarged...

Mark our journeys for lighter... richer travels.

We MUST allow Him to replace our burdens...

With something new...

Tools assisting true vision..

So we might see with His eyes...

DEEP...

Into the hidden spaces of others...

Love...

It's a high calling.

The greatest...

Also...

The hardest.

But when we surrender our baggage...

Claiming His free gifts...

Organic love...

Wells up...

Springs forth...

Bringing refreshment to all...

Thankful for Rivers of Life flowing out of the hands of smalls today.

Forever teaching me...

To remove the blinders in my backpack...

So that I might see through the lens of His love...

Opening prison doors...

Setting captives FREE!
