Look Up
That's what I'm going to do. I'm not going to say I'm going to try to do it, I'm going to do it. It's a choice, actually, a series of choices just as changing the way I eat and the way I live right is a series of choices. I'm going to start looking up. I'm going to start looking people in their eyes and keep looking in their eyes while they speak to me and when I speak to them. I'm going to stop scrolling.
I have felt the tugging at my heart for a while now. I had not put two and two together until just now. As I crawled out from under the rock where I was hiding for a time, I still wasn't quite ready to re-connect to people. There was something I needed to do first, and now I have done that. Now, the tugging at my heart is stronger than ever and I think I understand more clearly why. I desire connection with other people - to live in community. It has been suggested that hospitality is my gift. Planning events, hosting parties, organizing fun activities, feeding people (always feeding people!) Hidden inside the gift of hospitality is the drive to bring people together, not just so I can experience community but so that others might also. Clarity. It's almost frightening just how much clarity just descended upon me.
Father, show me the way.
