OK, you say, it began over two weeks ago.
What's up with now?
Good question.
But...finally...it has taken off.
Most grateful for that!!!
Simply stated, and sincerely, no need for details here (...those are reserved for some face to face conversations with a few trusted friends, for whom I'm eternally grateful!), 2011 was one of the hardest, saddest, loneliest years of my existence. There were moments when I thought I would not see daylight within my soul.
And some weeks it was full, truly, of amazing moments beyond my comprehension. It was a year of internal (...and even eternal...) extremes like I've rarely experienced. But...praise be to God...I'm still standing and breathing and heading in some deeply important directions...within my soul and within my calling that continues to unfold in ways and places that only our Triune God leads...with creative grace...and unending strength...and wisdom power...His, not mine.
David's Psalms were often a solace to the tumble of what was taking place inside. If you read those Psalms at all well, you notice that David's own emotions were all over the landscape from praise to "take 'em out, God," and back to praise all within a few sentences. I know that feeling.......well. And yet...even when he was in a dark cave within his soul (...as well as literally, some days...), God was whom he sought...with his whole heart.
I long to be that kind of man...even more so in my remaining days here on Planet Earth. Wondrously, mystically, my own calling has never been more certain...humbling, to the max.
The time in SoCal last week was ordained. Purely. Simply. Profoundly. I'll be writing about that as more of these 2012 days come and go...along with a myriad of other unfolding thoughts.
But, oh, how good it is to be back home in Parker with Judy. Oh, how good it is to be back within my soul in numerous ways within my own 8 dimensions of this life God is giving me as I trustingly step into these future days. On, how good it was to even be back on the treadmill @ Fitness19 early this AM. :-)
Always, I have more questions than answers...fortunately. I invite you to follow me here on this blog...and on Twitter @thewesroberts where I will be often asking an important series of questions about life that will fit into your own life as well.
Finally...I welcome 2012.......
...no matter what it brings.
There's more to come...in here...
very soon.......!
