Walk it Well

My heart is overwhelmed from the old faces that have rushed back into my life like a roaring fire. I have caught myself gazing at these old faces with excitement and wonder. Has change come upon them? Has a year of beautiful absence made me an outsider of who they are or have become? I can sincerely say that with eagerness and anticipation I’m looking forward to finding out. The past memories seem to be a step in the sand, slowly being washed away by the oceans rhythm. I find it in me to look towards new steps that God willing will be walked well. I’ve been blessed beyond measures upon my return to blue skies, mountain tops, cold feet, and the wisdom of my teachers. Being still is something I wish to master, during my time here. To listen with application, purpose and direction towards those who speak to me. Many folks seem to set goals at the beginning of every year, I am one of them. As quickly as we set them we seem to forget them, as if words spoken into the heavens are brushed away by the wind. As this New Year comes to its beginning I hope that words promised will not be broken. That we may look forward to the day when the wars and violence cease, and all creation lives in peace. That our journeys would be focused and profitable on the city that waits for us.
