when faint ...

She cried herself to sleep.  She tries to avoid chattering about him to God right before bedtime because of the frustration it causes inside.  Tonight the build up was too much.  Soon tears began to flow.

 She knows that her journey is a path of oneness with her God and she wants to walk contented.  The ache is still there for love.  Coming to her Heavenly Father she can hide in His Everlasting Arms.  She knows His Heart is pained as He collects her tears.  She feels His Presence in His Hug.

 Even though she will feel the cry tomorrow in her head, she will feel better from the cleansing.  The tears needed to come.  Who better to confide her faintness than the One who designed her path and who can make her steps sure?

. . . though none go with me, still I will follow . . .

When my spirit grows faint within me,
it is You who knows my journey.
(ps 142:3)

    The world behind me, the Cross before me.

    With such high regard for marriage as it is a full picture of God who is fully Warrior and fully Beauty, I long to for a deep and true union of love. Even if I walk alone, I still will follow the Lover of my soul. No turning back, no turning back.
