“Scars” by I Am They

Instagram

Always in the night. The questions pound away. The gentle waves, always present, start to roar to life . The waves crash on shore, insisting on their urgency. “Figure it out,” they begin to pound. Wave after wave, grows louder, threatening a mighty roar. My mind looses focus, my eyes scan the waters, my heart starts to crave the footing it had only moments before . No longer the gentle lapping water that soothes and comforts. No longer the place where I close my eyes and breathe in the serenity and trust. No, my eyes are wide open, searching for safety . My feet flail as my heart is tempted to control, to flee, to ignore, to disengage. Fear is loud—but there, in wave after crashing wave, a gentle reminder is present. If I can only hear its whisper beneath the roar. If I can only remember the promise of the storm. If I can only grasp the truth the waves hold. If I can only believe— . Jesus . “Through every high and stormy gale, my anchor holds within the veil.” . . . #fear #anxiety #ccfreewrite #hopewriter #hopewriterlife #instagramforjesus #worshipfear #stormsoflife #fostercare #family #adoption #parenting #future

“Someone should tell us exactly what verb love is. Love is a verb, and that verb is GIVE. Love gives. God is love and He gets to define love: For God so loved the world THAT HE GAVE... That’s what love is: Love gives. There is no other way to express love apart from givenness. THE ESSENCE OF LOVE IS LIVING GIVEN. Give away your life; you’ll find life given back, but not merely given back—given back with bonus and blessing. Giving, not getting, is the way.” —Ann Voskamp Oh how we need this truth about love defined, declared, and lived loudly + softly. Whatever your position right now, spouse, sibling, parent, neighbor, friend, remember this: Protect true love and live true love. This is our highest calling, to love given to God and love given to our neighbor, ALL our neighbors, not just the ones we feel comfortable with . #thisisfostercare #naam19 #adoption #fostercare #family #lovemakesafamily #livegiven #racialreconcilliation #transracialadoption
