What I Am
Pastor James made sure I didn't suffer from myopia this Sunday. While there are some important things to be dealing with in prayer and seeking the council of God & His Spirit in prayer and through His appointed teachers and instruments, it would be wrong to solely focus on the damage that has been done. I am not the man I was before.
I am:
- a new creation in Christ 2Co 5:17
- a child of God because of the Father's love 1 John 3:4-10
- not ashamed because my hope is in Him Psalm 25:20
- a servant by God's grace and power Eph 3:7
(Psalm 25 has been a great refuge, btw)
A daily, musical reminder via "Carry Your Love" (Caedmon's Call), slightly modified:
I am not of the world I'm in.
I am chosen; I am blessed
to bring light to the lives of men.
So, Father sow You seed;
Give me life in community;
Wake me from my sleep.
This is Your time; this is Your place.
I am a vessel for breaking.
Under Your Grace, I am led by Your Spirit.
You have redeemed me by the blood of Your Son.
Send down Your Word; I am eager to hear it.
Ready my heart to carry Your love.
You are sunlight; You are morning;
You're the hope of a brand new day.
You are comfort; You are blessing,
And You wipe all our tears away.
So change me from within;
Render miracles from my sin;
Remind me once again,
This is Your time; This is Your place.
I am a vessel for breaking.
There are also prayers for the Church & those around me and the need to get involved in the community of believers.
Tori will be doing youth activities; we'll be going to community group meetings as a family (I pray that we all will go someday); Men's prayer each Thursday morning.
It's a start...a new beginning.
