I'd Be Stupid Not To



I remember well the first time I saw her.  I was exceptionally moved.  I couldn't help but be overwhelmed in that moment.  There I looked at her and with some hesitation I approached her.  But I had to approach her, she caused me to marvel.  Then I decided rather than just stand there and gawk, I'd probably do well to say something.  And so I began.  I tried not to show my awkwardness and just speak, but I couldn't help but fumble a bit over my words.  Her presence had captivated me.  And as the brief introductory window we had to meet one another had ended, I found myself longing for another chance to meet with her and talk and get to know her better.  I would not be content to do anything but pursue after her.

Nobody Believes Me



I am a broken record.  And the revolving of this record on the turn-table of life plays one tune: the Supremacy of Jesus.  I marvel again and again and again at the brilliance of Jesus, with the slight window through which I have been able to look and gain but glimpses of Him.  And still I marvel.  He is more brilliant and bright-shining than I ever knew.
