There was once a time of innocence, when every second revolved around the most trivial, but mainly bracketed to the oneness of me. Where familial was a house lived in and carried like an invisible cloak.
Where love flourished but taken for granted, and appearances wafted about in the periphery...there for the sharing or not.
Where personality developed, awareness took roots, and life ran through hoops, sharp turns and hilly terrain.
That terrain ran with lessons hard learned, bad decisions mingling with the good, and the race tiring. Life is hard.
Time that had once seemed interminable now speeds along as one chasing the wind...with reflections and wonders of the loss of it.
But maturity and wisdom begin to reign and take its rightful place in life, for the Creator forgets not His own and restores what is broken.

Looking is not always seeing. Hearing is not always understanding.
Believing often leads not to committing.
Time that had once seemed interminable now speeds along as one chasing the wind...with reflections and wonders of the loss of it.
Listen to advice and accept instruction, that you may gain wisdom in the future.
~ Proverbs 19:20
But maturity and wisdom begin to reign and take its rightful place in life, for the Creator forgets not His own and restores what is broken.
I've filled my days with detailsAnd all the choices of the earthCarried the yoke of worryAnd all the burdens that it bringsSo through the midst of all the rushingYou whisper to our heartsAnd with Your sweet voiceYou say to usTo be still and know You are God To be still and know You are God Just to rest in Your arms
So give me peace and wisdomTo know how to fill my timeWhere I can learn to keep YouAt the centre of my lifeSo through the midst of all the rushingThere is time to spend with YouAnd my foundationWill daily beWritten by: David Gate
