what's It to you?

To me, It is the tearing away of false comforts in life, which hurts, and thereafter the replacement of those false comforts with His true comforts. It is those true comforts which are in both the here and now, and in the Life waiting for me. It is pain and then healing. It soothes. It promises. It is Him wooing me to Himself. It is Him first picking me, and then investing in me; in the past, every day, and in the future. It is the Creator of the Universe being my Best Friend, my Lover, my Father, my Counselor, my Teacher, my Guide, my Truth, my Home. It is at hand. It is near. It is always available. It is close. It is perfect. It is a conversation. It is LOUD. It is bold. It is r u s h i n g w i n d. It is consuming fire. It is peaceful waters. It is rest. It is my dependence. It is my reliance. It is offensive. It is dangerous. It is safe. It is welcoming. It is humble. It is the ‘Beautiful Letdown.’ It is death and then Life. It is weakness and then Strength. It is the growing discontentment for anything but Him; placed in me by Him. It is the longing to see His face and feel His embrace. It is Light and clarity. It is no fairytale; It is the only true Story. It is my pardon. It is my sure thing. It is constant. It is the magnificent obsession. It is the majestic and humble trade. It is humiliation. It is glory. It is radiance. It is giving up. It is receiving. It is offering. It is disappointment and then fulfillment. It is peace. It is Love. It is Truth. It is Joy and Beauty. It is ongoing and eternal... And yet, It is finished...
