He Left the 99…because One Matters

God opened a door for me.

A door I didn’t expect.

In fact, I walked over to the door expecting to shut the door myself.

Instead, I found the sacred.

Once I looked through the door, I saw the other side.

Hesitation. Wondering.

Asking, “Am I really supposed to go in there? It’s dark and I was just stopping by to get my iPod and then be on my way to rollerblade and chat with You there….”

But I just had to go.

I had to listen to the Holy Spirit nudge.

I had to pause in this moment where

the distance didn’t feel so wide

Except to get there

To fully be able to engage in the moment

I had to shut the door in front of me

in order to walk to the other door

where I could turn on the side lights

and then walk toward the moment

where tears streamed down my face

with love

for how He left the 99 for the

one

because

one matters
