Basketball

Tonight Jonathan and I watched Bruce Pearl's men's team beat Florida. It was my first basketball game--and I'm a senior We sat at the very top of the nosebleed student section, our backs to the wall and feet propped on the stair rail. We had to crane our necks to see the screen around the banners. Pearl's daughter sang the national anthem. Peyton Manning was in the crowd, and Coach Pat Summitt dressed up as a cheerleader and sang "Rocky Top" (I groaned. Jonathan laughed. Everyone else cheered.) Jonathan passed my "Anger Management During a Sporting Event" diagnostic observation. I think most of the people around us were jealous. They were mostly males, and every time a time-out was called, we would hug or look deeply into one another's eyes or interlace our fingers or something else categorizeable as "cuddling". Although we were into the game, we were much more "into" each other And when the intoxicated guys to my right began behaving obscenely, Jonathan switched places with me to bar me from them, gaining nods of admiration from other onlookers (but that's just who he is; he wasn't showing off).

Sigh... sleepy. But worth it. Maybe it wouldn't have been as much fun if we hadn't won. This was the first time I'd been in the arena proper when something other than a prophetic conference or gathering was going on

I woke up Friday morning with the feeling that I was at home over the holiday. It was that sort of peaceful, delicious, spacious kind of wakening and it boded well for an eventful day.

Accompanying said waking was an unambiguous dream involving two diverging roads--one along the river and one going into the wilderness. In the middle of the river road stood a great friend of mine who would have me walk along that road with him, yet he hesitated in saying so, and thus I considered the other road as well.

It was a lovely, portentious day, and as it drew near the Sabbath, I felt it coming to a head. My new--male--Israeli friend invited me out for coffee and I went with trepidation. I halted. "Yeshua, what am I doing?!" "I AM with you," He replied. At the coffee shop I realized that the stage was set to encounter my friend, the one in the river road in the dream. Sure enough, he came. He saw me together with my new friend and was crushed, but being a gentleman he did not interrupt. After the Israeli left, we talked.

It was a long talk, or maybe just intense, full of the deep things in our hearts and what the L-RD had spoken, and as it neared the end we both affirmed that our friendship could no longer continue in its present form. We have opted to "date"--to hold hands and look into one another's eyes, to have adventures and speak highly of one another, to meet more family members and continue steadfastly in dedicating ourselves to the L-RD and His work in our lives.

He says he loves that I am Jewish, that that qualifies as being "of a different culture" I say I can't find a thing wrong with him, and that my doubts are hushed by Yeshua's voice.

So He was right all along. Friends, I am--we are--in love

Ruined

Ruined, I am ruined

I am ruined for Your purpose to be fulfilled in me

I am ruined for Your heart which is irrevocably in me

I am ruined for intimacy on the battlefield

Battlefield kisses, You fight with me

You cause me to stand and withstand the day

You cause me to awake in the watches of the night,

To stay awake and not keep silent

To cry out my heart, the heart You share

With me

I cry out OUR heart, Yours and mine

Our heart, Yours in me

Kisses on the battlefield, I am refreshed as I run

And I say to You, "YES!

"YES! I will come, I will run

"I embrace this vision You have for me."

"And after everything is over/ You'll be the song I sing forever"

You are my Exceedingly Great Reward

You are mine and I am Yours

May I find myself

Giving my heart away

Leaving pieces of myself in my wake which I shall

Never pick up again, never return for

Here a friend receives my heart

My footprints leaving echoes in her soul

But where am I? Running ahead

To new souls, to new days

Leaving pieces of myself in my wake

May my heart be

As the seashore after a storm

All the sea's deepest treasures are washed up on the shore

Found by the lookers, the walkers, the watchers

Stumbled, treasured or stepped upon

An open heart, a treasure-store

May my heart be

A gift from my Lover

My Maker, my Savior

To you
