The Preview of “The Space…”

God gave us grace to enjoy this place.

The space He creates to replace our race

…just for a little while.

Life’s rip current can relentlessly grip and pull…

It’s essential to bask in the space of blessings.

Where time stops …and minutes stretch.

Joy’s beach.

Waves of emotion may ebb and flow, and even erode …

but when the tide subsides,

it’s unchanged.

Christ is constant.

He’s my constant.

I may weep but only for a moment …

Anger will break like the surf but then foam back into the sea.

For me, Jesus is joy

…and I cling to His hold on my hand.

Between this post and the last, I have been hanging out in the space…

I can’t wait to tell you about it…

Stay tuned…

Happy Tidings…

Megs

“Be joyful always.” 1Thes.5:16

And you’re a poet! 🙂 ❤ Megs, welcome back and I'm so excited to hear the inbetween space you've been hanging out in. Love this: Joy’s beach./Waves of emotion may ebb and flow, and even erode …/but when the tide subsides,/it’s unchanged." Happy Thursday, Megs.

  Thank you, friend! I honestly had forgotten about it until I sat down to write this! Back in my Catholic grade school days …that’s where it all started! ☺️ And Creative Writing class in high school. Blessed to have been encouraged by amazing teachers and parents!

Now you have me totally intrigued. And the part about weeping for a moment and anger coming in rolling back into the sea, has been me today. Thank you for putting it into such beautiful imagery. Like a poet 😉 can’t wait to hear more about this! 💕

  Julia, I’m so glad you can relate! It’s always so hard for me to let go of my routine… And then so hard to let go of the space once I’m in it! Praise our patient, loving Father. 🙌🏻😊 Happy Wednesday!!!
