That line from the movie "Princess Bride" was used in church this morning. I think it struck me because of writing what I did yesterday. I know when I started this journey on this blog I wrote how on a daily basis in my life I have looked to GOD and said "Here I am, send me". And yet, I liked this too today. To stand before our RISEN SAVIOR and to give HIM all and respond to HIS calling, prompting, nudge, whatever you want to call it, by saying, "As you wish."
The message was pretty much about being in a season of 'winter' and when you're in that season and feel like running, don't run away. But run to, run today, and run together.
Just made me thankful that I have a RISEN SAVIOR to run to, that there is no time like today...why wait?, and that I have others who are willing to run with me. I am presently not in a winter, I have just past through that season and am sooo thankful to be in this spring.
GOD has brought new in my life in just about every area. It is refreshing and I look forward to watching the flowers bloom. If that makes sense to any of you. At least it does to me.
Today, tell GOD "as you wish" while you are running to HIM. And make sure you reach out and ask others to run with you.
This started as my online journal of the journey GOD was taking me on to teach in Seoul, South Korea and now continues with where HE is leading me after there. My goal in life is to have my life reflect Christ, sometimes without ever even having to say a word. After all, the best gift we have to share is who HE has created us to be.
"Lord... give me the gift of faith to be renewed and shared with others each day. Teach me to live this moment only, looking neither to the past with regret, nor the future with apprehension. Let love be my aim and my life a prayer." ~Roseann Alexander-Isham

Kimie, wonderful insights--thank you for sharing. And I am so very happy that you have moved into spring time! He gives beauty for ashes; strength for fear; gladness for mourning; peace for despair.
Love ya!
