Finishing lines

I have finished the lines. They have definitely taught me patience. And during meditation of straight lines, I contemplated the straight things of God. His truth. His will for our life. I messed up a few times and had to realize that God uses everything. Even those times when we veer. And when I got back on track, I was relieved to be back. Back in truth.

I've also finished the Curved lines (at least the ones I was going to do in black). In curve lines, we find "the deeper movement of thought". They took more precision, and yet seemed easier to make when allowed. I am in a place in my life where I am being encouraged to think deeply, and ask questions. And often times when I am there, I feel just as I felt in this curve writing, a little hesitant, but eased in the asking/writing. In the same way, Christ invites us deeper and deeper into relationship with himself. It can be tentative. It means doing things you've never done before and letting go of fears, and yet, the reward is wonderful and filled with hope!

I pray you see hope in these lines.
