two open hearts and four open ears.

what a fantastic view.  i feel like i've had this sort of conversation every night this week.  i feel like it's a good place to be where you have a conversation and you leave wanting to be more Christ-like.  exploring within your own self, and with somebody else huge and foundational topics like God-style love.  It's really refreshing, and i believe a reflection of where i'm striving to be.  i'm striving to ask those hard questions of myself.  and when i see them and examine them, THEN i ask them of someone else to see if there are blind spots.... hypocrasies, or failures. 
i want to echo the cry of psalm 17, espcially v3: "You have tried my heart, you have visited me by night, you have tested me, and you will find nothing; I have purposed that my mouth will not transgress."
yes, that's it!  i pray that daily i get there...
thoughts about perspective, proximity, and memories, letting go of the past and embracing grace... all these good things in my mind.  i went for a prayer walk aroudn town today first time i did that in a long time, it was nice to get my eyes off self and brought back where they belong. 
ALL THINGS WILL BE MADE NEW
