awe

surrounded by Your glory
how will my heart feel?

it never ceases to amaze me the amount of extraordinary people there are out there in the world. i remember quite awhile back, i was visiting Zhen's blog, and she posted up a video about Rick & Dick Hoyt, the father son team that participated in the ironman challenge. i dont usually watch videos on youtube (back then), but i felt compelled to watch this one.

it was and still is the most breathtaking and inspiring thing i have ever seen.

life has been very out of perspective for me lately. unmotivated, unfullfilled, lacking a purpose; sometimes it gets so overwhelming you lose your sense of direction. and yet somehow, watching this video, everything just fell into place. it is that powerful.

although ive watched this video many times, it never fails to bring tears to my eyes. but more than that, it touches my heart, right to its core. even sometimes to the point where i tremble. i know love presents itself in many forms, but the love this father has for his son, is truly indescribable. for me, it is a small representation of the love Jesus has for us. small.

Rick & Dick Hoyt are the true epitome of inspiration. they aren't inspiring, they are the inspiration.

whenever you think you can't, you can. and you must.

its hard to find words to blog about this, because no words are powerful enough to describe the impact it has on me. and on many others i believe.



i hope it will touch you, just as much as it has touched me. (:
