Not as the world gives... a much greater gift, for (me!) sandra, tvgp

  -write in the middle of an otherwise miraculous day....   5 words from heaven!

gold has nothing on this..   fancy cars, luxurious vacations..  

they pale..  

i was gifted 5 words; delicious, perfect, layered, poetic,

in the order they appeared.

i stopped everything, and hunted down a pencil and paper.

i hand wrote them on scratch paper and tucked it in my back pocket.

i said,  "thank you!  THANK YOU! thank YOU JESUS!"

and continued on with the responsibilities of my day.   i did not, and still do not know, exactly when the window of time and creative energy will open to write the poem  -give birth to..  

create a larger life from just these 5 perfect words...

but i have felt perpetually at the 9 month of pregnancy since I received them and wrote them down..

i literally,  -can't wait!

and i already knew it was a HUGE gift; i already knew, not an ounce of doubt,

but when i pulled the scratch paper from my back pocket last night, and shared them with my sister...

her response was so immediate, so validating; she knew it write away too..

5 perfect words have been gifted to (me!), and the only way to express gratitude in equal measure, is to..

write a poem

and put these 5...   ~oh! Kiss tip of fingers... 

~these 5 precious, perfect, spiritually aerodynamic words

into the space..

they have always belonged.

-coming soon...

"Thank you!" Jesus!   amen!  

John 14:27.
