Moments~Greenhill


...Sometimes in life you have those moments…the ones you sit back on, you stew on them, analyze them till your to the bone of the event. The moments in which you know is important, but can not seem to put your finger on why. The moments where you have no idea what the next step in life is, like the moment sweeps you away and you are hidden behind a blindfold and do not know where you will end up.
Life is full of little moments that just kill you…..moments that fill you with joy....moments that want to make you cry out in anger….moments that make you cry with gladness
Why are moments so important? Is it just little beads on a thread, individually they are small and may get lost, but pulled all together they become a beautiful piece of art.
I do not know why moments are so important, why they seem like all you have. They are means of communication, togetherness, and sharing. In a moment you create a bond with that person you shared it with, whether that person is some one you know or a complete stranger.
Moments seem to drain my mind; I do not know what to do with them. They weigh on me until I drop to the ground.
I have moments in my mind at this very moment, ones that leave their presence here even as I type.
Think about what happened just five minutes ago, the scene or event you are thinking about is a moment. Now I do not know whether or not it is important. What I do know, no matter how small it is, it made an impact on your life!

I feel: rage, anger, joy, passion, sad, depressed, fat, ugly, stupid, worthless, quite, calm, reserved, love, concern, jealousy, lonely, lost, found, weak, strong, hungry, thirst, hot, pain, sorrow, grief, happy, tired, content, hopeful, doubtful, encouraged, scared, saved, and many more…..

I want to cry, just to release these feeling, but it is all wrong. I do not know where or when to do it. I do not know who can be there and who can not. By the time I figure it out, I have no energy to.

I want to sleep till this is all done. I want to sleep when I know I do not want to cry. I want to sleep to gain energy….

Time can only tell what will happen….

Moments will keep coming, I will keep being overwhelmed, I will feel a lot of things, but I know I can do this. Lord prepare me to be a sanctuary pure and holy, tide and true, with thanksgiving I’ll be a living sanctuary for you!

  2. My dear Caitlyn,
    I'm up early today, waiting for the big snow to come, decided to hop onto your blog since it's been a while! With Chrismas just over a week a way, I was wondering what your plans now look like. How is your ministry going there? Have you made some good friends? I will pray for you today..you are missed here! So sorry I missed your homecoming before you left!
    Did you hear the musical this year is Bye, Bye, Birdie? The leads are Emily Evans, Anna Norton, David, Nate Bratka, and Seth Baker. The story line is stupid and shallow, but it's based in the 50's I think and will be fun dancing!:) The year is going well and I'm subbing alot. YOur presence and spirit is missed there! Am trusting God to continue to teach you the things He must as He continues to lead you in these next years of your life!! With great love!!!
    Sue Beikert :)
