rest

Headed to a hotel for a bit of rest.

When i look back on the past month, the past two weeks...there's been so much emotion...

I've moved from one thing to another...with little space to feel the various losses/transitions  or celebrations that have come my way. "powering through" in some ways...and in much deeper ways being held, by the Lord, and by my community in the midst of some full and hard days...

so i'm going to go feel...and reflect...and pray...and question...and wonder...and grieve...i'm sure there will be lots of crying.
and it will be so good.

As i head into this space....the soundtrack for the day is Andrew Peterson's "The Reckoning"

You are holiness and grace  
You are fury and rest  
You are anger and love
You curse and you bless  
You are mighty and weak  
You are silence and song
You are plain as the day,
But you have hidden your face--  
For how long? How long?

I love that song.. very Psalms-ish- "How long, Lord?"

Praying for you.. Peace on your weekend,

Matt
