OneThing. One thing or nothing.

I want to say things as they are,
live for what's important,
and let everything else fall.


If I could speak my heart without fear of estranging others, I would not say half the things I say now. I would give up all semblance of normal conversation and I would talk of crazy things, of love and freedom and life abundant.


A time will come, when everything will change. There will be confusion, destruction, and persecution as we have never known.
Almost everything will fall.
If I am still on the earth when that day comes, I will be asked whether I will be known as a christian or as a member of the world.
In this tribulation, there will be joy in my heart to be known by only one thing.

Yes. I am one of those believers. No. I will not follow another.

I wait for this day,
and I pray for the Lover of my soul to hasten its coming and His.
In the world and not of it?
Yes, for today and maybe tomorrow.
But not forever. I was made for another world.
So were you.
