The Sooner We Fall In Love

Because the pages in my Lilly planner are all blank from after May 17...
(Lie: I wrote in birthdays, some weddings, and drew a Christmas tree on Dec. 25)
Because that was really actually thrilling until it became petrifying...
Because despite all this, the Lord shows me that persevering in His hope and falling deeper in love with Him is what he wants for me more than he wants those pages full...
This is how I feel today.

And rather than conquer the silly little life I've ironed and laid out on my bed so neatly for myself, I'd rather live this life with radical faith in the Creator of Everything. 

'Cause, come on, isn't everything a little better when it's shaken up?


p.s. True Life: My journal looks like this. My notes from class look like a first grade teacher's. Even I am confused as to why.
