Of loving and leaving to the light…..

By jennifer | August 14, 2017 |

Just this.
Because I need a little break this week from working out the words.
I made this for you to sip on,  instead.

Love to you,  exactly where you are,
and to all that you carry inside.

“My whole life I have been complaining that my work was constantly interrupted,
until I discovered that the interruptions
were my work.”
– Henry Nouwen

    ‘Flling up with mystery’ is a truly lovely thought.
    Thank you so much for you – in all its damaged rich wonder. And delight.

        Well lovely Jennifer ..,
        You are so right as I just can’t fix it!
        I choose to allow the willows to sing over me to to fill the brokenness
        And the mystery of my heart ❤️
        I will pray for your Bryan
        That surgery and recuperation
        Be remarkable to the glory of our King
        🙏🌺🙏
        We will meet again but in the meantime
        I could not find the 2016 summer
        Story as ripplespesk has so many
        Entries.
        If you could steer me In the right direction
        I’m sure it will be healing balm
        To my soul. It still hurts in the waiting.
        Shalom,
        Lucille
        Your gifting by the Lord penetrates the heart ❤️

    Dear Jennifer, I’m sipping the nectar of your words and it make me feel refreshed by the wisdom of it all and that quote by Henry Nouwen rings true to me. Interruptions are my work too.
    Enjoy the rest of August.
    Hugs, Julia

    We all need the break — and this is a lovely bit of wonder to leave behind while you refresh.

    Big hugs.

    Starting my day with coffee and your beautiful words and images. You inspire. I grew up with willow trees on the farm…this brought tears to my eyes…
