Into The Deep

So shallow now I see my pool....once so scared to dip my feet;

I'd hang onto the side in terror--so fearful of the deep....

My eyes would scan the bottom, I'd inch lower with my toes

Trying not to lose my balance or worse.....get water up my nose.

I wanted to master the skill of this new medium, 

but I could not loose myself and really learn to swim

into the deep...

Funny now, I've noticed a trend...

I still live much of life in the shallow end---

BUT,  there's more beauty I could explore...

knowledge, love and faith I don't want to ignore...

I don't want to splash around the sides anymore...

time to cannonball into the DEEP!

Trying to sing SAFE TO SHORE along with the Rend Collective Experiment (BTW, I think their experiment is a success :) from their My Lighthouse song over and over at the top of my lungs kinda helped me realize I can do whatever God wants to me to do....God's the one who brings me safely to shore as long as my eyes are fixed on HIM!
