Bounds to reach for

      Came into the apartment, right after my meeting
and Bible study, excited for the beauty of the day
and crashed. No eating. No hellos. Just took my shoes
off and landed softly against my pillow, mattress.
I covered myself from cold toes to copper, cinnamon
strands. All underneath Wedgwood blue I stayed for
two good hours.

     Now wide awake I am grateful for the early morning
transitioned to one hour forward. Daylight was given
back to me for another couple hours. Grateful for
the evening hours still shining bright well past
seven p.m.. Oh how bouncy every step I take.

     My small excursion into the sunlight was just
for ice cream. So many people were agreeing with
the same destination. I enjoyed every second of
my thirty minutes outside. The smallest joy of
seeing a cardinal on the steps before me.

    Each step I took from then had me bursting
with smiles and tiny fireworks inside spirit. Even
watching a movie with my mother. Our laughs,
the tears of joy in a happy ending. Each second
worth breathing. Thanking Jehovah for this chance.

    Still a huge sigh is released when I think over the
week that is gone. Thankful that Jehovah provided an
escape for my worries and concerns. Ever grateful that
I can turn to Jehovah for anything, at any moment
of the day. In tears, in joy, in heaviness of thought
and know that Jehovah will be listening, that some
sort of resolution will come.

   Today was another stepping stone for me. Every
baby step I make is for me, my relationship with
Jehovah to build me stronger. To constantly explain
to coworkers, to family why Jehovah is first before
them, at times is so hard. Jehovah, I pray to, and he
places the words where they need to be.

   I still love. I still hope. As for you my dear friend,
well we seem to making it in this system of things
but still I am pursuing more. You can be a part of me,
a part of helping me grow, the steps that push me
closer still to Jehovah or you can walk away. Either
way, you choose. I hope that you choose to be a part
of my life, my journey to include you in my walk with
Jehovah.

       Silently I say this: all I ever wanted is you to
be a part of it all. Maybe not every step but some
pushes. One bond, one circle at a time. Would you
choose to be a part of my journey?

     Simple joys. Simple happiness.

     Oh how tearful I am from this movie, the joy
sparkling inside and the hope that is making great
leaps. Yes dear friend, you are one of inspirations that
press me forward. One. I hope that every step you
choose takes you on a new journey, as it does for me.
Could you choose, could you try for you? For me?

    So many hopes, so many dreams, goals to attain.
I hope that you choose to allow me an entrance into
your life even at a distance. All I can do is pray that
I can be. Silently I pray.

    Sitting here enjoying the moments, cooling in
the evening air. Breathing. So happy that I got a
chance to experience a little touch of the sunlight.
Did you get a moment in the sunlight? To breathe,
to be inspired of the beauty of simplicity?

    Giddy I am as I prepare for the week to come. All
is amazing and possible because I believe in hopes,
dreams and my trust of Jehovah.

    Oh how my paleness is hinted with pinks and my
blue eyes sparkle bright.

     This is the time to smile and whisper. Ah I hope
for you. I pray for you. I listen. I observe. I want you
to smile with me, now in this very minute, this
millisecond. Recall that tune that uplifts and makes
you feel outstanding. This is how amazing you are
to many, to one - Jehovah.

     So you see, you feel deep within your spirit, your
conscience that love is everywhere. Do you feel it,
really?

    I stand holding my hand out, with Bible. All you
have to do is reach. Are you willing to reach for it,
for one Scripture at a time?

             Ask and I am here.
