Five Minute Friday: Choose

I have been waiting for this all week!  Last week, for the first time, I linked up with Lisa-Jo Baker for her Five Minute Friday writing prompt and was both blessed and challenged.  Won’t you join us?  It only takes five minutes!

CHOOSE.
This day.

Will I be intimidated?  Or will I take the next step?
Will I recoil with uncertainty?  Or will I overstep the fears and keep going anyway?

CROSSROADS.
Unsure what will transpire, but willing to walk this path.
For love.

Remembering this…it’s for love.
Because that crazy, wild thing He did- was love,
so I could choose.

All that, so I could choose?!
What a weighty thing, yet freeing at the same time.
Shackled so I could be loosed.
Bound so I could be free.

This.
This road I choose because He chose cross for me.

MEET KATIE

Hi, I'm Katie (a Modern Martha, wife, and mom to five). I'm so glad you're here! Let's enjoy some cut-to-the-chase conversation over hot or iced tea, as we find grace in the unraveling of life (together). Let's exchange try-hard striving for hope-filled freedom as we settle into our position as a doer and a daughter—created by a Loving Father.
