A New Day
I am so thankful that God is merciful. His mercies are new every morning. We may lay our head on the pillow at night so convinced that our life will be forever in darkness-then morning comes. The sun's rays reach through the window and into our senses, filling us with light. Suddenly, Hope fills the cracks. A new day has begun.
Have you ever set out on a path with extreme determination? Only to find yourself off it at some point down the road? Stuck in a rut, wondering why you just keep spinning in the hamster wheel with all your projects stuck to the outside of the wire ball, staring you in the face? (Yes, I am 'odd'. I'll take 'strange and peculiar' that AbbaFather gave me, thank you.haha)
This blog has been that to me. God gave it a name. He gave me a direction; then I added a 'little of this' and 'some of that'. I didn't want to be too preachy so I watered the mission down. I didn't want to offend so I wrapped it in 'soft flowery' words. Ideas would come and I would write them down for future projects, thinking they were all separate. They were not.
So, today I reclaim this blog for its original purpose: to show God to a hurt and broken world. He is not silent. The white noise of today's culture drowns out and distracts us from Him;but only if we allow it.
His design was perfect before mankind invited the Enemy in. Now, we travel through a dark world. He desires for all of us to know Him and be known by Him. He does not desire for us to walk in darkness, illness or shame. We can have healing, better health, greater insight into Life's Mysteries-we can reconcile with Him and glimpse the perfection that is to come. It will not be this way forever. But I digress...
This NEW DAY I set out to do what a dear friend has taught me: write. Even if it's a short post. Write. Regularly. Once again, I set my face towards His glory and take a step.
