I took a break. A year and a half, actually.
But I miss this space.
I miss writing. I miss sharing my heart.
I am quite a different girl then when I last wrote words from my heart in this space. I think that's okay.
I'm not telling anyone I'm back. Because I don't care anymore if anyone reads these words. They are for me to express what my Jesus is doing. It's a creative outlet for me to look back on and reflect.
I'll read these words again, and I want them to be real. I long to write words that come straight from my heart. No more fake-ness and pretending. Not that what I wrote before wasn't real, but Jesus is teaching me lessons that rip my heart open a little wider. I bleed pride, shame, stubbornness and selfishness out, and He pours grace, love and hope back in.
If I post once, or 100 times, I don't really care. I just want to write. I want to put into words the tears that fall weekly, sometimes daily. The lessons learned and all the lessons that I don't want to learn. The success and the fails. And maybe a couple real-life pictures that I'll look back on and just shake my head.
Because this year, I want to Lift Up My Eyes. And when I gaze into the face of my Savior, sometimes words just come pouring out.
It's perhaps a bit on the late side, but welcome back! This came up on my Blogger feed and I've just managed to find time to come and have a look. I'll read your other new posts soon. It's nice to see you back; I look forward to reading some new material here. :)
