so that did not
end as you had hoped
the outcome perhaps not
only different but opposite
of what you had planned
or dreamed
or wanted
perhaps the paradigm shifted
so completely that time for
you will forever be marked as
before
and
after
and search as hard as you might
a purpose...any purpose at all
seems impossible to find
and He whispers
"My beloved child
from before time began
I knew
from before the morning stars
were taught to sing
from before the first dawn
of creation
and first breath
of life
I knew
and I know
throughout time
I have been weaving
the threads of your life
and every life
into the tapestry designed
by My hand
in your humanness
so human you are
simply unable
to see what I see
to know what I know
every event
every circumstance
every storm
every tragedy
every tear
every cry
is delicately held
in My hand so pierced
and intertwined in the
symphony of life
to bring joy from sorrow,
hope from despair,
beauty from ashes
even that which appears
to have no purpose
has purpose
even that meant for evil
I will use for good
and hearts will
be brought
home
to Me"
"His purpose was for the nations to
seek after God
and perhaps feel
their way toward Him
and find Him ~ though
He is
not far
from any one of us.
For in Him we
live
and
move
and
exist."
Acts 17:27-28
