Quick Ones | Pursuing Inspiration Instead of Waiting

"I understand but I don't want to."
To live a lie is far worse than to die with truth.
Nothing is what it seems until you take your mask off first.
Go now!
Time is finite until you go.


Forever is when the longest part of your day is the part you don't want to end.
It means moments move you instead of time.
It means you wish to expand your experiences rather than repeat them.
Forever means pursuing the day, allowing yourself and your growth to make time worth your time; for you, for yesterday, for tomorrow and today.
Forever means now.


Will you my heart be known?
Please.
Will you explain yourself to me?
Do you have any direction?
Is there a method to your madness?
Do you even consider me in your decisions?
Can you even make decisions? Isn't that my domain?
You only feel, ache, and long.
I can still have my say, do my will.
But without you, it's less than halfhearted.

Love is patient...

Love waits... for God's timing
God's timing is Him moving through us
This requires a relinquishing of control on our part
This takes time
Thus, love is patient

Lord You are patient
You wait for us... without ceasing

"Love is patient", the first characteristic mentioned
Unexpected yet fitting
By waiting, we are letting God work
Waiting is not stagnant
Waiting is serving
