eyes

It's amazing what getting out of your element, being in a completely new place, where no one knows you. everything new. will do for your sanity. it makes you want to loose yourself in this world. never go back to the place where pain is overwhelming, where hope seems to be distant. Everything is suddenly put into perspective when you get out of our element and run to a place where we can find hope in Him. A place where an alcoholic says "God changed my life, i can't explain it but i'm different and i'm madly in love with Him" It's cool to sit over a cup of coffee and talk about life, to talk about who God is, His amazing, extravagant love that is never failing. Love the look in their eyes, to sit and see the complete difference, the transformation that goes deeper than any quick fix. It's extrodinary. To be able to sit accross from that person and have words come out of your mouth like you've never experienced before, to speak with an authority that is startling to you. Thank you Lord for that moment tonight, for that place where i was able to speak Your heart to someone who really cares to see Your heart conveyed. Thank you Lord for that opportunity. You are great and beautiful. I love being able to be in Your presense and work for you...
