The Pursuit of a Life of Praise

In your majesty ride forth victoriously in behalf of truth, humility and righteousness; let your right hand display awesome deeds. Let your sharp arrows pierce the hearts of the king's enemies; let the nations fall beneath your feet. Your throne, O God, will last for ever and ever; a scepter of justice will be the scepter of your kingdom. You love righteousness and hate wickedness; therefore God, your God, has set you above your companions by anointing you with the oil of joy. ~ Psa 45:4-7

Dork, by definition


noun; Someone who's love has not yet grown cold enough to support a false image of themselves as always being poised and in control of every situation. Someone who is unable to consistently counterfeit a "been there done that," attitude in the face of new and wonder filled situations. Someone who when alone with those they love refuses to act as though they have just met in order to preserve everyone's false sense of dignity. They are not "tough" or "cool" or "hard," and no one would ever mistake them for a movie star. They show a distinct inability to take the human creature, and all of its nonsense, with the same gravity and seriousness as those around them do. They persevere in this lack of decorum even after repeated threats and warnings by the well meaning that they will never "make it" if they won't fall in line.

I am so honored to be called a dork! Jen is this why you called me a beautiful dork of a sister this morning? That Josiah...he pretty much amazes me. He takes the overused and not properly used term "dork" and makes it a prestigious title. Gotta love it!
