in my lady's house

my recipe to a perfect day:

  • a vast blue sky with small white fluffy clouds gliding by
  • temperatures in the low 60's, with a promise of rising no higher than low 70's
  • sweet aromatic coffee brewing just a few feet away
  • iron & wine or coldplay softly creating melodies in the background
  • my journal opened to a blank page, inviting me to dive deep within my thoughts and soul
  • boxer-shorts, a long sleeve tee, and knee high argyle socks lounging in a lay-z-boy
  • my playful pup jumping around her ball on the flower-filled balcony
  • my phone lighting up with a new text from my love
  • a whisper on my heart that guides me through His truth...

...God really knows how to construct one incredible day!


In My Lady's House by Iron & Wine
there is light in my lady's house
and there's none but some falling rain
this like a spoken word
she is more than her thousand names

no hands are half as gentle
or firm as they like to be
thank God you see me the way you do
strange as you are to me

it is good in my lady's house
every shape that her body makes
love is a fragile word
in the air on the length we lay

no hands are half as gentle
or firm as they like to be
thank God you see me the way you do
strange as you are to me
