I feel like I'm emerging out of a dry-ish season. Or I very soon will be.
I've been struggling with feeling alive lately. I feel like I'm not truly living out of my deepest heart of hearts.

Now, if you know Jessica, you know that I am a very passionate person. I am excited and exuberant over almost everything. I love being like that... it's so much a part of who I am. I feel alive when I love things. :)
Like so many others, I've been ruined. I've tasted love and life and now, anything less leaves me unsatisfied.
Right now, I want to feel wholly and completely engaged. I want to know who I am, and live as that woman. I want to sing because I'm happy. I want to smile like I have a secret I want to share. I want to randomly get the urge to go on a barefoot adventure. This is what being alive means to me. I want to love the men in my life and encourage them to become true men by being a woman. I want to speak to my sisters and lovingly guide them to their Creator. I want to be a blessing to my family. I want to know with my entire being that God is good, He's big, and He loves me.
I know God has me walking through this season for a purpose... there's newness coming. I've experienced some of it already. God is giving me
- new dance
- new music
- a new voice
- and a new perspective.
"Though I turn away, your mercy brings me back to you again... You draw me closer. You draw me in."

Thank you Jesus for this time.
~Amen~

There's a new morning rising,
His mercies will bring us back again... to life, love, and hope... fresh revelation and strong confidence...
You are a treasure... one of my favorites of course :) *BIG HUG*
And might I ask, where do you find all those precious pictures?
:)
I love you!
I found many of the icons here:

These blogrings have many groups for icon-lovers. I found many of mine on the "individually beautiful" site near the bottom of the page.

I closed the door just to make a memory... ahahahaa, we are too much fun. :)
You are so precious. I love your passion for life.
Darling girl, you are a blossom starting to open, and you are lovely to behold. What a true Freedom Chaser you are!
Hope you don't mind if I add you to my blog dear one?
How beautiful, how rich in meaning...nearly lyrical...you are a gifted writer.
I'm so glad I happened upon your blog; I'll be back.
