Walking Dead

Death....we are born into it. We walk in it, like zombies walking the streets. Many times we don't even realize we are the walking dead.

Dawning...a realization that there is more than roaming looking for ways to feed our dead souls. A realization that there is another option...another way to live that actually involves being alive.

Drawing...a force so powerful, so beautiful, so all-consuming that draws you closer. The closer you get you begin to see something...light, life.

Daybreak...the first beams of that beautiful light that begin to illuminate the darkness. Once you realize there is something to see, you want more!

Desire...you begin to realize that though you try and try you cannot add more to the light you see. But you also begin to understand that you NEED more.

Dazzle...the moment you learn that all you must do is ask and the light, Jesus, breaks all darkness and is all consuming.

Deploy...how can you not? You remember the darkness and you know the beauty, peace and joy that comes from the light. You also know that the Light's desire is to illuminate for all, and you love the Light.

Death...we are born into it, and as we draw our last breath on this earth, our bodies succumb to it. But it no longer has a hold on us. Instead, death is our gain, our final step from this life into glory!
