matters (11.37am)

a friend who understands value. relationships reached for often. choosing what is best for her life to open door to. handing out time and attention and effort in ways that matter.

it shows crafting flour sugar water into art. she makes not for sake of finishing but for making’s sake.  knowing each part matters in introduction of whole. every smoothing and shaping and even cutting away counts.

at the end of every detail taken into account there is something beautiful pointing to maker’s heart.

god’s plan does not discount the details. it wraps up every part of who we are and every almost, should have, what if, and want to stirred in—-and builds a life complete.

every hope, every giving up, every start over and every finish is watched over by one whose directions are founded in perfect love and perfect fit for pilgrim.

are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? and not one of them is forgotten before god. why, even the hairs of your head are all numbered.

fear not; you are of more value than many sparrows.

luke 12:6-7 (ESV)

    when we get bogged down in our own “can’t see the wood for the trees” it’s good to remember that others see us/things differently. and that this can give us a fresh outlook. S xx
