I have been pondering today empty spaces and the potential space for beauty that only they provide.
simple pictures:
new garden soil, ready to plant spring flowers or weeds
a nice clean empty table by the front door, very soon holds our keys and cell phones
a now empty bedroom can be a home to someone.
empty calendar time can give room to serve others
an undone job can be a new purpose for another
soul portraits:
empty feelings
failing to measure up
empty life purpose
fruitless life relationships
heartless traditions
fakey family
lifeless groups
unhappy seekers
off purpose churches
non focused faith
meaningless materials
nothing to trust
inability to be satisfied
in wonder of belonging
no joy in being
sitting in puddles of excuses
living limited
self misundersanding
unanswered questions
we search for the answer
to our weakness. our unmet need.
the non-answer is a ground work for a change to blossom
in all.
so the empty space sometimes must remain in our soul
gives us eyes that see
HOPE: on the corner of LIFE and ADVERSITY
