I’ve lived long enough to know what I want out of life. My aim is to live & love in imitation of Jesus. Though I daily fail, I’m resolute in the pursuit. It is not that I do not care what you think or what that looks like to you. It’s that I care incomparably more what He thinks.
“But I know sometimes I still cross his mind and everything comes back to him once in a while. All the times we had, all the the things we said in cars and parking lot”
1 can say with 100% certainty that no man will ever love me near as much as this little boy loves me. He always greets me with a loud “Zaaza!” And a full sprint, almost tackle hug.
And on today’s saga of #onlyinafrica a rat the size of a cat ate our chickens at the farm AND a monkey pulled back up all the spinach looking for beetroot. Big fun
God can do whatever He wants in my life. Small, big, quick, slow, hidden, or in plain sight. I will just show up - eyes on Him, palms open, expecting to be loved and to be used. I will just show up, grateful to be His and defined by His capacity alone.
