Five Minute Friday ~ {Still...mine}

Ahhhh. We made it!
It's Friday.
Sharing with The Gypsy Mama at inCourage today. The prompt is:  STILL




And still it's you.
I would choose you every time.
Still after all of these crazy fun wonderful scary years.

Still.

Despite the incredible hurts
overwhelming pains
flowing tears
crushing fears...

Still.

For when my heart is thumping with fear and the world closes in and I just can't take it...
you grab my hand
and I go....

Still.

As we look at our boys
and worry
and wonder
and delight for all that they are and all that they mean
it's such a joy to just be

Still.

And know.

For still our God reminds me of His grace
in your smile
with your touch
as I hear the laughter and silliness of our children

Oh how I adore you.
For...

Still you are mine.

Still.
