Divine Resonance


Awesomely awesome God, your greatness reaches beyond the farthest expanses of the heavens and all that is within them declares the vastness of your immeasurable glory

So how is it that such a tiny and unremarkable creature such as I can hold your attention and capture your heart so completely? For indeed I hold them both firmly captive

By your sovereign choice to love the unlovable and to give unspeakable worth to the unworthy I am a target of your grace, your obsession and cherished possession

I am broken, gratefully crushed in spirit and deeply humbled by the presentation of endless grace and your grand recognition which I cannot earn to deserve in the smallest portion

Your generous provision has sustained me from the moment that you formed me and your grace to share from what is yours alone has bloated the richness of my days

Where are the words to describe you, to righteously declare the wonders of your character? I cannot find them for none are adequate to paint a portrait of your perfection

There is no heart to contain the full wonders of your person - the ecstatic joy that your pure character evokes, rolls like the endless waves of the oceans in my contemplation

I am made rich beyond the counting by the mere presence of my Creator and my heart stands overwhelmed and trembling in consideration of its endless worth

Lord I make yet another request of your grace, not out of impertinence, but glorious desperation - let my heart reflect in more perfect resonance the beauty of your Spirit

Let your forgiveness and selflessness be reflected in my countenance to all that I encounter and cause my heart to radiate with all that you have shown me of your own great character

While I am known unworthy to my own accounting, you are worthy of all fame and recognition - praised upon acknowledgment and worshiped upon reflection ...

Where Truth Is Found...

"He that cannot forgive others, breaks the bridge over which he himself must pass if he would ever reach heaven; for everyone has need to be forgiven." - George Herbert, British Poet 1593 - 1633 The above is a true statement and one could give credit to George Herbert for his wisdom in that saying, but the truth and wisdom found in those words did not originate with him. They originated with The Author of truth and wisdom - The Judge of the universe... “For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses." Matthew 6:14-15 (NKJ) ...Christ Jesus. With deception being a tool of the enemy   and being spread  widely with the help of mankind these days, it's a struggle for some to recognize what the truth really is. It's good for us who follow Christ to remember that whatever we might think or reason with ourselves to be true, our opinion c...

Fear not.

There's a lot going on in the world and a lot available to provoke fear for the future, but I have a question for anyone who might feel themselves tempted to fear - If you truly know God, does He ever change? “I am the LORD, and I do not change. That is why you descendants of Jacob are not already destroyed." Malachi 3:6 (NLT) We stand reinforced in our understanding and belief that He does not change, so... "The LORD says, “I will rescue those who love me.  I will protect those who trust in my name.  When they call on me, I will answer;  I will be with them in trouble.  I will rescue and honor them.  I will reward them with a long life  and give them my salvation.” Psalm 91:14-16 (NLT) I know that I said that I had "a" question, but I actually have another - do you really, truly love Him? “So don’t worry about these things, saying, ‘What will we eat? What will we drink? What will we wear?’ These things dominate the thoughts of unbelievers, but your heave...

God Blesses Those...

"And seeing the multitudes, He went up on a mountain, and when He was seated His disciples came to Him. Then He opened His mouth and taught them, saying:... " Matthew 5:1&2 (NKJ) In the 5th chapter of the book of Matthew, we find Jesus teaching His disciples. What He taught them there is often referred to as the Sermon on the mount. And within that teaching are a number statements that are commonly referred to as The Beatitudes. I humbly suggest that whoever it was that coined that term might have been more accurate and to the point if they had called them  The " BE-  Attitudes" since Jesus was in fact telling His disciples both then and now, about the spirit of how to "be". “Blessed are the poor in spirit,  For theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are those who mourn,  For they shall be comforted. Blessed are the meek,  For they shall inherit the earth. Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,  For they shall be filled. Blessed a...
