I will just be your friend.

I hope to find it easier to smile than to frown.
To be humble than proud.
Kind than rude.

To be Christian. 

I hope to be a genuine friend. 
One that tells you how I truly feel. 
One that speaks the truth in love. 

I hope to hear more from you, God. 
On my own time. 
When it's just the two of us. 

And there. Is where I find Him most.
In the times where I let myself be still.
When I sit. 
And sometimes, where words do spill from my fingers.

And when I go back to read what I have written, I know He is here with me. 

When the sun makes it's full bridge across the sky, I know He is here.
I do not fear Him. 
I am becoming more and more aware of just how much He loves me.

And I hope to show you, love-less bodies that walk past me daily, just how to be filled with it. 

I hope that through my kindness, love will transfer and you will see Him. 

I hope through the consistent, gentle, and truthful lifestyle I chose daily, He will somehow reach you. 

I won't try to sell you something. 
In our generation, door knocking doesn't seem to be effective. 

You will want to know what you're buying into. You will want to understand. You will not quickly jump to a life changing decision. 

I hope though that when you decide to look into it, I can be a testament to the clear love of God. 

I understand your need for it to make sense first. I was born in the same generation as you. I get it. 

I don't have it all figured out. I myself don't see it clearly. I will I hope someday soon. 

But while I am waiting for those answers, I'll be here. Keeping my life clear of
smudges so that when I walk past you, and interact with you, you can see through this walking glass and get a crystal view of God's perfect Love.

 After all, that is what He called me to do.
To show Him you. To Be His love in Calgary. 

Calgary, I am coming for you. In a consistent, loving, kind, Christian lifestyle that is ready to be your friend and share His story.

Sharing it by showing how it changed me. 

I will not force it to you. 
And neither would  God. 
For it is much more meaningful when you desire it yourself. 

So when you are tired of sitting in the dark, you know where to go. 
Because you have a friend of the Light.
