I woke up this morning wondering where I was~
as I am not at home,
yet in another place that feels like home.
UNFAMILIAR yet so FAMILIAR
as I am in the presence of women~
of whom 2 that I have already known
and of whom 2 I have met for the first time.
UNFAMILIAR yet so FAMILIAR~
as there is a common bond that connects us~
from far to near
to near from far
that makes us feel as if we are one of the same
because we have a common bond.
A bond that it is stronger than
just a "how do you do".
A bond that is stronger than
"I like you".
A bond that is the
FAMILIAR
in the
UNFAMILIAR~
because
HE is our FAMILIAR.
We
BELIEVE in JESUS
&
have become so
FAMILIAR
with
HIM
that
HE
is our
FAMILIAR
in the midst of the
UNFAMlLIAR
&
that will never change
because
there is only one
JESUS
who is our forever connector
from the moment
we became so
FAMILIAR with JESUS
when
HE
connected each one of us
back to the
ONE
who created each one of us
in different places
yet by
the same way
the moment we
took the same path
that connects us all together~
feeling as if we have known each other
our whole lifetime
because we
know the
ONE
who
has given us a new life
that lasts beyond a lifetime
just because~
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son,
that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life" (John 3:16).
From UNFAMILIAR to FAMILIAR~
there is only one way~
"I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the FATHER except through ME"
(John 14:6)
