Five Minute Friday :: {Look}…

Five Minute Friday :: {Look}…

Here’s what we do on Fridays…

  • After receiving Lisa-Jo’s prompt, we write for 5 minutes flat ~ no editing, no over thinking, no backtracking.
  • Then, we link back here, inviting others to join in.
  • Finally, and there are absolutely, no ifs, ands or buts about it, you need to visit the person who linked up before you & encourage them in their comments. Seriously. That is, like, the rule. And the fun. And the heart of this community.

Five Minute Friday, Seek, Look Jeremiah 29:13

Go

I look here and there, hoping to see.

See?

Yes, see.

Jesus,

A glimpse, that’s all.

The crowd, so large.

Still, I look.

I hear His name ~ Jesus.

I see the dust stir ~ Jesus.

I feel the air freshen ~ Jesus.

I look patiently, with anticipation.

I’m so little, so small, so insignificant.

Still, I look.

As I look, He looks.

He sees me.  He seeks me.

He find’s me.

I look.  He looks.

We smile.

All’s well.
