School has once again descended upon our home (uninvited and unwelcomed). My apparent spiritual growth in the area of anxiety has all but vanished with the onset of tests and studying. However, I can see God's gracious hand at work to point out my sin, and for that I am grateful. Please pray that God will sanctify me to trust his timing and provision. If you are still reading my blog, thanks for being patient with my sporatic posting. I am hoping to write more consistently once I get settled into school life again.
Here's a poem on the lighter side...I just thought I'd try something different.
New
Again
I am here
and what I want
is not what I do
there are holes in my skin
where Christ's seering grace seeps through
and when the holes all join
I will at last do
all that I want
I'll be home
Holy
New
From now on, therefore, we regard no one according to the flesh. Even though we once regarded Christ according to the flesh, we regard him thus no longer. Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come. All this is from God, who through Christ reconciled us to himself and gave us the ministry of reconciliation; that is, in Christ God was reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and entrusting to us the message of reconciliation. Threfore, we are ambassadors for Christ, God making his appeal through us. We implore you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.
2 Corinthians 5:17-21
