I have these realizations often, which I guess is a good thing because every once in a while I need a good check up, but still every time feels like the first epiphany ever felt by man.
As I was helping someone I realized that she was completely depending on me. She trusted in me completely knowing that I would know how to help her. That if she couldn't, I could. In that moment I was thinking about nothing, no one but her. All I wanted was to fill that role she needed. Whatever doubt I ever had that I couldn't was quickly blown away and replaced by surety from her trust.
And that's when it happened.
How often must God see my wide eyed, child's gaze looking up at him?
And how much does he want to help?
How often do I trust? And how often do I run?
So I had a talk with myself.
I said, "Self. Running is tiring when you're going in circles. Let's not do that anymore. Let's slow down and skip awhile."
(It's been a long time since I've skipped... and it's fun!)
And myself said, well... quite nothing actually...
...because myself knows that I decide what me and myself do.
So that was the end of that. And here we go. :)
This is the temple in my hometown.
I have the opportune blessing to serve here every Saturday morning.
