This year of 28: Let the artist live loud!

So here we are.  The day has come and gone, but the changes, the changes are still moving and shaping, like water slowly eroding a rock.  This year I'm gonna let the artist live loud. I feel challenged and pushed to write a prayer/poem a day for this entire year.  I don't feel particularly motivated about it, or like I'm in amazing writing phase.  I feel called to the discipline of it.  Feel free to journey with me, or check in when you want, or don't. Regardless, you're welcome here.


Day #1: 23/03/2013

You littered my day with love, and I am undone by your extravagance.

I trade in 5 hours to get 5 days off: the math in Your kingdom is out of this world.

5 days of sunshine spilling all around; and one shooting start to finish with bliss.

flowers upon flowers, kind words upon kind words, food upon food, and drink upon drink, you've lavished upon me through my friends, and I sit in awe.

the detail of turquoise, each hair painted so carefully: and your thoughts, your thoughts about me are more meticulous than this?

and the chair.  the chair that i'd long given up looking for...and its so much more than I knew I wanted.  How is your care and concern this detailed about such a trivial thing?

you littered my day with love....LAVISH.  To me all this is extravagant, even excessive. But you whisper to me: "this is just lavish, sweet heart, just lavish". 

And I am undone.
