--------------NEW BEGINNINGS------------

This is the first day of the rest of my life. As the snow melts away and leads to new beginnings, new life, and new seasons, my life is in the same process. I choose to embrace the future and see where it will lead me. I am going to walk into my future blindly, trusting God to lead me all the way.

Jesus - Lover of my soul

I was able to go see the Phantom of the Opera, the movie that is, and although there are alot of opinions about it, I loved it. I don't remember the 1940's version, although my mother loved it, I am going to try and find it and watch it now. After I saw the movie, I went and bought the soundtrack, I have listened to it alot today and the song "All I ask of You" with Christine and Raoul is beautiful. However, when listening to it, I was thinking alot about God, and my heart soars as I listen to the music, I can feel it, and to me it could be God speaking to me. I know that what I felt today while thinking and once again reflecting on my life is that above all, all I have ever wanted is to be loved, maybe I didn't always feel loved or special growing up, etc., which is not important now, except to say that you/we long for that and to be loved unconditionally - we as humans have a hard time with that, but God doesn't, we just need to allow him to love us, to be the lover of our soul. This song speaks of hope, love, freedom, hiding in him, protection, how he wants to go wherever we go, sharing, being led and following, and many, many more wonderful promises and longings, and what we can have if we acknowledge him and allow him access to our hearts. I want to feel this with Jesus, that He is the Lover of my soul, to know that love and to love Him that way in return. I love my husband, but to me this love and relationship with Jesus is higher and will only increase the love between my husband and I, and I know with all that is within me if God helps me get there with Him, everything I do and anyone I come into contact with will somehow be touched by God, because I am touched by God. I want people to see the Lover of my Soul, not by words but by my actions. Now I guess I do have a dream, where do I go from here?, once again running to Him and spending time with Him, giving myself to Him, because I trust Him.
