right by my side

inspiration comes in from funny places. it peeks from behind the kitchen door, intertwines with falling snow, creeps though the pages of old-weathered books, and weaves through blades of grass. it comes in and, by using it's glittery appeal, seems to taunt me to capture a photo or draw a picture and keep it in my memory forever. it seems that oftentimes the uncommon is found among the common, or the beautiful is found among the plain. i think this is the way God views each of us; He has searched and sought for us, to see the deepest part of our hearts, and the best we can do is give everything to Him. He longs for us to just give it all. i am willing -- i will run towards the One who loves me and calls me by name!
