Looking Back

Blogging it.

The blog that I started for you Jesus. I know you read it But beyond how it was intended I don't think many people go through and read it. They don't have to. I said a long time ago if one person read it and it and it led them to Christ in anyway to grow in their relationship with You. I did a well done. I know the number the quantity is never the mission.

I know it has to be about Christ Jesus. Glorifying His. Name and if anything can do that well than I am a little awestruck. I mean anything a blog, note, person, song, t-shirt, I unbought t-shirt. If it points us to Christ in a way that only You can point us to You.

I am in a hymn somewhere wondering how the heck does it all come together. How You use people in the most peculiar amazing world changing ways. You never waste anything. You can find a speck I tossed out 20 years ago and restore it and squeeze some glory out it. You take the misfit and use them in your kingdom. You are able to pull mighty great things out of what seems to be nothing at all! Until it is. And it's You Christ the hope of glory.

How is it in the ash that you take out beauty. You find beauty always in a place that is messy even dirty. You pull it out, wash it off and make it brand new again. Who takes a man and He says things like this :

7 And lest I should be exalted above measure by the abundance of revelations, a thorn in the flesh was given to me, a messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I be exalted above measure.8 Concerning this thing I pleaded with the Lord three times that it might depart from me. 9 And He said to me,"My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness." Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. 10 Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ's sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong.

2 Corinthians 12:7-10

Like who makes people like this! You do who speak my language. I know exactly what He means because of You Holy Spirit. Yet I know nothing all at the same time. Thank you for taking the time to love me even when others were not able to. Maybe they even wanted to but they were not able to. Thank you for being this place for me in Your Word. Thank You for giving me the kind of love that is bold enough to rock the earth for Your names sake. You know if I sit and actually think about the things You have done in my life I would be overwhelmed by a life filled with this great love. That made me into a woman of God. No longer a little girl, but a full blown God fearing woman. Never the less we are here in the big New York city.

Pacing my steps this morning steadfast slow. Relaxed. The world seemed a little different at your pace. Maybe because I am who knows. To Christ and His glory.
