That Thing You Just Can’t Shake

Sometimes there is a thing you just can’t shake.

I don’t mean a bad habit, but a stirring, an awakening, a longing that is deep and far inside your spirit.

I have one of these things right now. It’s been around for about a month. It’s not something I need to do, to plan, or to make happen; it’s a door with a tiny peep hole, and I sense God moving in, opening up, and letting me have just a tiny glimpse into what happens when the door fully opens.

Normally, I write these things off as emotional whims, having too many assumptions and the wrong hopes, maybe even hormones.

But sometimes things just stick.

Do you have a thing you can’t shake from your heart?

I’m learning to walk in it with joy, and hope, and gratefulness, moment by moment.

Anticipation.

Faithfulness.

Our God is so, so good, isn’t he?
