Five Minute Fridays: Unexpected

Five Minute Fridays – Today’s Prompt…Unexpected

Unexpected
How you come in
Shining light into all my hopelessness
Was it something I did?
Or is it just You
Lover of creating
Surprises
Redemption
And hope
How is it I can never explain
The deepest workings in my heart
The moments you step in and redirect my heart
Change my life?
I guess it’s all just to give you
More Glory
This whole ‘can’t put my finger on it’
‘Can’t explain it’
Thing called Grace
At unexpected times
And places
You write a whole new page
That starts a whole new chapter
Of the page-turner
That is my life.

That’s all I’ve got. Do I have to keep writing? Hello? I’m officially breaking the rules of Five Minute Fridays! ๐Ÿ™‚ But this one, like “On Distance” seem to have exhausted me – rung me dry, before the timer dinged. Five Minute Fridays has become a holy experience for me – how about you?

    thank you, dear friends all of you! For supporting me as I try to put into words the heart working the Lord is doing. Each of you are a part of what He is doing in me!

    Oh Trina, this is really good…. you definitely got your 5 minutes worth out of that 3 minutes!

    This is my favorite part… “This whole 'can't put my finger on it'
    'Can't explain it'
    Thing called Grace”
