Blue is a lovely color. Even the word on the tongue aptly describes the thoughts that tumble in my mind tonight. They are weighty, light thoughts. The color of the summer sky, the hue of a churning wave.
Blue thoughts of wishing, of sadness, and of hopefulness in hope. Gratefulness and wanting. My cup overflows, foaming over the rim, but sometimes there also seems to be a leak through a crack.
. A crack that threatens my gratitude. A slow seepage. A leak of love and desire.
"Hannah replied, "I am a woman who is deeply troubled
I was pouring out my soul to the LORD
I have been praying here out of my great anguish and grief
...and the LORD remembered her." 1 Samuel 1: 15 &19
Remember me oh Lord.
