Did You Know

I'm talking to you and you don't even know it.
I'm drawn to you and I'm not even sure why.
I can't call you mine and for some reason I still think I'd like to.
I'm trying to just trust God... but sometimes it's confusing.
What is it about you that is so much like a magnet?
There is passion in your soul and fire in your eyes.
Energy in your being and love in the way you live life.
I guess you could call this a "love letter" since it sounds like one,
Just call me friend for now, it's all I really want for now,
Really this is just the ramblings of a girl who wishes she knew more.
Knew more about who you are and where you come from.
Knew more about who she is and where she's going.
What is God's plan for this life anyways?
I'm sure you've been there too.
Why is it I can't help but smile when I think about you?
And when someone else says your name,
I laugh to myself as though I knew some kind of inside joke,
But it's really only because you bring me joy in some simple way.
I don't know that we'll ever be together,
And I don't want to assume either one way or the other.
Did you know I was praying for you?
I don't know why... but I was compelled.
I hope all is going well for you, and I hope you are living your dreams.
I pray that every passion in you brings you to a place where God moves through you.
We all want to see God's power in our lives and in the lives of the people around us.
It's really cool when He makes Himself to evident to us.
I might not be the greatest theological thinker or philosopher,
But I know that God is faithful and He is able.
I'm so thankful that no matter what comes of all "this",
I can believe and know that He is in control.
And what is before each of us in this life on earth,
Is so much greater than anything we can possibly imagine.
My life is already so far from where I envisioned only a couple years ago...
But do you see where He has brought me?
I am blessed beyond measure...
And still dreaming of the future.
I want someone to dream with, to plan with, to be with.
I guess we all want that even from when we're little.
It's a funny thing how right from the beginning we know that we were made for relationship.
How much more is it important that we nurture our relationship with God?
And how many times have I wandered?
Not to a place of disbeleif... but perhaps a valley of indifference, or satisfaction.
I do not want to be satisfied... and I never want to become mediocre.
I love my Jesus. He is my Light, and my Salvation.
Precious Jesus who loves me... Even though I don't deserve it.
It's amazing how that is... That He would die for us.
Can you imagine love like that?
People say they would take a bullet for someone...
But how many of us really would?
I think my fear might overtake me...
And what is it I would fear?
That I might die and go to heaven where I would live eternally?
It's a little shameful...
I hope you haven't minded my ramblings...
And I wish this had been in person...
But I didn't leave alot of room for response.
So hopefully at some point we'll have a chance to sit and talk.
In the meantime,
Know that you are supported by a friend,
And I'll still be praying for you.
