My journal on June 14, 2012:
married.
So it has been a year now of gathering new words and putting the old behind, stretching them into and over gaps, navigating this one word that spins the rest dizzy.
Married. And this is grace and this is death and this is Christ and this is life and this is blessing and this is shrinking and this is too good and this is demand and this is loud and this is physical and this is crowding and this is comfort. This is great bursts of huge feeling and beat flat words. This is sacrifice and this- this is the best thing I can make.
It is ours, this muddled glory. And oh, He is going to make something pretty out of us.
