In the Beginning…

In the beginning there was the word, and the word was, “Hey mama, how are you today?” And we said, “Let there be light,” and opened our hearts up to the possibilities in a woman.
Is she for real? Is she the one? I hope she is sincere. She makes me feel so… damn… GOOD.

Step by step we prepare for the journey we will take to figure this one out. We smile when we think of her & whenever someone says her name. We catch ourselves daydreaming about her throughout our day. We long to feel her touch on our skin… and we WANT her.

We want her in our lives, so we make subtle changes to provide a place for her in it: seeing her on our lunch break, talking until 3 or 4 in the morning on the phone, random text messages all day and going to places that we wouldn’t have considered only two months prior.

Our pulses race when we smell her perfume. We get misty eyed when we make love, the ‘butterflies’ when we see her, and we want to touch her. We ALWAYS want to touch her: to let her know how much we care, to try and figure out where her thoughts are instead of just asking, “What are you thinking?” We want to touch her so we can FEEL and STAY connected… to make sure she is real, and to keep her with us.

“Do I deserve her?”
“She is too good to be true.”
“Something is bound to go wrong.”
“I’m waiting for the other shoe to drop.”
“Can this woman really love me?”
“Can I TOUCH her Spirit?”
“Can she MOVE mine?”

In the beginning there was the word, and the word was, “Hey mama, how are you today?”
And when we said, “Let there be light,” we opened our hearts up to the possibility of THIS woman.

Do we embrace her and the experience… willing to accept whatever comes… knowing we are on the cusp of all of our dreams coming true or blinding heartbreak?

Do we accept the possibility of getting burned in order to dance in the fire? Or do we protect ourselves and walk away from the possibility of one the greatest joys ever intended for us?

Do we hold on to fear and hold back from her… when she may be the answer to the question we have been asking God since before we were born?

I don’t know about you,
But If God has an answer, I’m listening
