shekinah?

{via pinterest}
:: shekinah :: 
the Hebrew word for the dwelling, the settling, the presence of the Lord. 


and that is what i want to pursue. the presence of the Lord at the kitchen sink, in kneading bread and stirring soup, in growing bellies and pregnancy countdowns.

motherhood is not my only calling, but it is my highest. and this is what i crave, my utmost for His highest.

i want to redeem this phrase of barefoot and pregnant, standing on holy ground with shoes cast off.

this is a sacred pursuit.

and i am aching to live shekniah.
