You’ve heard the saying, you’ve got to “get the ball rolling?” Well, I’m okay at that, it’s what comes next: Rolling the ball. So I’m jumping into this blog with both feet, building up momentum to “keep the ball rolling.” My Facebook friends will have to forgive me and hopefully they won’t tire of me or worse ignore me altogether. But don’t we all look for affirmation and acceptance? I know I do! I think that’s why I so easily get discouraged, because we are so busy trying to make it in our own lives that we don’t understand the importance we have in the lives of others.
Lord, I want to take a step,
To roll the ball along the path,
To stride into the life you’ve kept
Preserved and hidden in your grace.
To find the key, unlock the door,
To see in truth this life you shape.
With all my heart to want you more
And from my heart reflect your light.
(Look, the wrong lines rhyme, that’s why they call it poetic license.) 🙂
The Far Reaches of Grace 
really like this post Sandy!
You’ve dug deep into my old blog. Opening the Creative Door was my first blog. I pulled all my content over to this one. I haven’t read these for a long time. It’s interesting to see God working. How I still have struggles, but how my relationship with him is deeper and richer.
