Closer to You, closer to You
Reaching past the mile, past the ocean blue.
Knowing You are there somewhere
Beyond my grasp and beyond my desperate reach
Acknowledging my hunger and thirst for You.
Seeing me in the distance knowing I dont have a clue,
And here I am, standing here dying for that touch
All because I know that with You everything is made new.
Closer to You, closer to You
Until we are no longer two.

I am Monica. I am an advisor and a warrior, a spiritual sniper -I may listen, and seem hesitant to reply, but when I do, more often than not, His wisdom hits you between the eyes. I am a literary craftswoman. God helps me to process concepts through imagery in literacy. So I use my words to create pictures, and pray best when I have a picture in mind. I am a chaplain. God uses my chaplain heart to easily relate to those who are lonely, hurt or rejected. In the past, I have been through significant hurt which allows me to empathise with those who also hurt. He has shown me that he is with me through it all - not in a distant, watchful way, but in a way that resembles an intimate dance. He is my life's breath. I am Seen. Seen by my heavenly father, even when others don't see me - and often they don't. My weakness and frailty, my anxiety and reluctance is often the conduit for God's strength to be seen and his glory known. Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth. Matt 5:7
