Little butterfly

It is amazing how life changes right under your nose, and all the sudden you wake up one day and think "crazy... I'm different." I guess this thought dawned on me when I was driving in the car and I threw in a cd from last year. As I to listen to it. I remembered how much I felt it and agreed with it. Now only about a year later I am looking back at those memories seeing how much I have changed.

I was watching Bridget Jones Diary the other day and people are really that crazy about pairing you off. So many people talk about how I should really go out there and find that certain someone before I shrivel up and die. They think that there is no way she can be happy just the way she is.

Ummm... yeah.
Does that sound absolutely ridiculous to anyone else?

Many of my friends are getting married. I see how absolutely beautiful and poetic it all is. For me marriage is a butterfly. I see it gracefully dancing beautiful and joyous. It fills me with joy. I see love and it makes my heart smile. And as I watch this magnificent miracle flutter about I dance and I worship a God that creates such beautiful things. I rejoice in all of his creations. I echo the angles the praises he is worthy of, and I see heaven come down. I see the kingdom expand. You see i do these things because God is good, but marriage is not the only thing he has created that is good. I serve a God of wonder beyond anything we could comprehend or put in a box. I do not desire to capture this butterfly and clasp it in my hands. Instead I choose to enjoy the beauty of the Lord, and if at some point this butterfly lands gently on my heart then it will because God put it there.
