the way He works





the wind sweeps through the meadow like a song,
he was there and i admitted that i was wrong.
gentle hands pushed up against my swollen heart,
teaching about love that is not hidden in the dark.

small flowers bend toward the ground in grace,
spoken servant hood no matter what they face.
i'm sorry i'm sorry i'm sor-- hey, i forgive you. 
many words in my heart but spoken were few.

it is quiet, sweet as honey, the way He works.
refining so that no dross or impurity may lurk.
smitten laughter smuggled through trials
and i know that He was there all the while.

  9. Wow. Not really sure what to say, just that I saw the title of this post and knew it would be relevant, and it wasn't what I expected, but maybe it's what God knew I needed. Also, whether this sounds strange or not, I really like your emphasis on laughter, especially God laughing. I like that picture. I know He's a happy Being, but so often I forget. So, thanks. And don't stop stringing those words together, or sharing your laughter. xx

    1. Maaaan. God is so, so good, you know? And those words feel a little repetitive in my mouth, but He keeps showing me over and over. oh baby. x also that makes me happy. I think I use laughter and laughing (or anything to do with it, really) way too much in my writing, but...hey. I am a laughing girl, and I think that comes from Him. thanks for loving me. x
