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 ...

An Observance And Observing True Reality...

As Easter approaches, I begin once again considering how our God sees our observance of an occasion as I always do and also what He might truly desire of us in observance above any of our trivial, man inspired traditions . What I come away with in firm conviction is the understanding that the most trivial of my sins, the least of my crimes against God, had the power to forever damn me in His judgment of me and send me into unending torment. And that knowing this one thing in truth and as reality, is key to my correct posture before God in honor of His purpose in the event. That key being the horror of knowing that the price of my very least sin was the shedding of my Christ Jesus' blood and His horrible suffering, because the reality of this brings the deep rending of my heart in awe and gratitude and it makes possible my true joy at the relief of my sentence because of what He has done. I believe this is a part of what God would desire from us in observance of Christ's death a...

The Real Power To Affect Change

I know that my position here may not be popular on it's face at first, but I think it could be most revealing of where some hearts are - even my own, by the response that it evokes... I think it's possible that we're all partly responsible for the chaos and darkness that is constantly swirling around in the digital tornado that is the constantly hammering news these days. While we may not have contributed to it directly by our own actions, it's a good bet that we may have contributed to it by our own inaction. Where does the true power to change things come from? And who is our best example to follow in this life? Now in the morning, having risen a long while before daylight, He went out and departed to a solitary place; and there He prayed." Mark 1:35 (NKJ) "Now it came to pass in those days that He went out to the mountain to pray, and continued all night in prayer to God." Luke 6:12 (NKJ) "Then He spoke a parable to them, that men always ought ...

Judging, Judgment And Judge...

"I have come as a light to shine in this dark world, so that all who put their trust in me will no longer remain in the dark. I will not judge those who hear me but don’t obey me, for I have come to save the world and not to judge it. But all who reject me and my message will be judged on the day of judgment by the truth I have spoken. I don’t speak on my own authority. The Father who sent me has commanded me what to say and how to say it. And I know his commands lead to eternal life; so I say whatever the Father tells me to say.” John 12:46-50 (NLT) A lot is said these days about "judging", but in the midst of that popular societal buzz and the assertive comments that come with that conversation, I have a question: If God has called something sin and we simply agree with what He's said,... are we judging or just repeating and declaring the truth? When He walked the earth, Jesus spoke about judging and He pointed out the danger of our judging...  “Do not judge other...
