I
used to live in these fields - among the wildflowers and butterflies.
Everything is so beautiful; the sun, the river, the sun kissed stones.
I’m a young, innocent girl when I’m here. Dancing in my bare feet,
spinning to my own music, I am the happiest person alive.
But I cannot stay like before. I can’t spend my hours singing with the birds and swimming in the river. I’ve been sent to the city. Buildings block the sky and the sound of birdsong is suppressed by wailing and noise. But I remember. I remember the feeling of the sun on my back, the brook racing over my feet. I may have been sent to this noisy, suffocating place, but I will forever long for my fields.
- the fields represent the closeness and peace Christians have with God. But He sends us into the world to serve and bring Him glory. The world leaves much to be desired when compared to those original ‘fields’, but sometimes we can forget. We can forget the peace, love and joy we feel with Him....

There was a time when I thought I would never leave His pleasant feilds. but in time my born again heart started to feel the hearts of the lonely, the desperate. The emptyness seeping into my heart "feeling the pain of the worlds dark and dreary hoplessness". He is calling us into the worlds feilds for this vital purpose. He shows us all how to "sow seed" so that we can all participate in the great "Harvest" (The Lost are all around us)
