I saw the word More
I saw the word More
and I just said NO.
No, I don't want more.
I have enough.
I don't need more to
fill my plate. To give me
less time for me and mine.
No .. late night blogging
No.. looking for work
No.. Can you do this?
No.. mowing the lawn
No.. pulling the weeds.
I'm done, I don't want more.
So NO I don't want MORE.
I DON'T
I yelled this loud inside my head.
I DON'T WANT MORE.
But then my reason took hold.
Reason that said..
I do want more.
I want more walks with a talkative young man.
I want more weekends away with my beloved.
I want more depth to my relationship with God.
I want more flowers to bloom in the spring.
I want more people to not have to use the foodbank.
I want more churches filled with people deeply in love with the Lord.
So my NO, became a more quiet.. Yes.
Yes I do want more.
I want more of the right things.
And less. oh... I want less of the things.
That weigh me down.
I want more sermons preached from my hubby.
I want more grins of delight.
I want more conversations that fill me with hope.
So oh yes... I do indeed WANT MORE!
This want becomes a yell within.
I WANT MORE!!!
Indeed.
Gracious Heavenly Father GIVE ME MORE!

This is a five minute Friday post. the word prompt is brought to us by Miss Kate. What is Five Minute Friday? Well it's a party of a group of like
minded folks who gather on Friday to do a five minute free write around a
singular word. AND THEN we take the time to offer up encouragement to
each other on this writing journey. It's fun, though it's not always
easy, but it is always good. Come join us won't you? You are always
welcome.
