What is it about the heart of our God? Why does he continue to work his goodness into the midst of pain, brokeness, hurt, anger - SIN...? Why? Why does he love the way he does? Why is it so hard to understand the depth of his love?
2008 has been one of the most difficult years thus far and as I write this it is March 16th... There are 289 days left in this year. Around Laura and I there has been a whirlwind of pain, frustration, bitterness and brokeness and it has hurt. It has cost. It has brought tears. It has brought fears to the service. BUT IT HAS ALSO BROUGHT GLORY!
That is the beauty that God is giving me eyes to see... He allows the pain to show his glory. He allows the brokenness to show his beauty. He allows the fear to show his grace. It is beauty in its essence. I am humbled, scared, thankful, joyful, angry, blessed, nervous, anxious, holding tightly to my Lord... I am FULL and EMPTY.
Praise the Lord.
