here

continuing from the last post - "here" is a relative term, i've discovered.

i came across an email written by me in august 2005 - almost a year ago - and it could have been written today. it describes, to the t, exactly where i find myself today. when i said i don't belong here, i meant at the ring. i also meant baton rouge. reading that email, i've realized that "here" is a spiritual place, not a church or a city.

that's huge. as in epiphany huge. as in God showed up in a hurry on this one. wow.

i'm not saying that all is well in my world. i am saying that He is stepping in at a critical moment, and i am so thankful i'm afraid to breathe.

o praise You, Jesus.
