Promise

I wrote one of those things again where I have one word in my mind, which causes me to write with my fingers on Ivysaur (my iPhone), mind on the word & heart on God. My word of choice was "Promise". Here it is, without being proofread:

You promised me. No matter what I've done. No matter how I've been. No matter what I think of myself. Even if I had faith that made a mustard seed look big, You promised me. Even when trying to live a purpose driven life and inevitably stuffing it up, Your promise is greater than my mistakes. Your grace is sufficient, that's what You said. Your hand is not too short to redeem, that's another one. If I abide in You, I will not get weary and I will fly on wings of eagles. Oh how I long to feel the wind on my face. How I long to soar above the storms of my life, gliding in your winds of love. Like a sparrow, an eagle, a dove. You promised me.

To Know Your Name

You Are For Me

So last Sunday, I withdrew from the crowd and penned down my thoughts and feelings. Based it on one word: Integrity. To my horror, I deleted it at the Castro's by accident. I tried re-writing it though, so here it is.

Integrity. How I am inside and out, the person that I am at home, outside and everything in between. How I treat my parents. Who I am in the privacy of my room against who I am when I step out of my door. To always remember that His plan is massive and my life simply isn't. To always remember that genuine happiness is not achieved but it is found when I realize that His love for me couldn't have ran out. His mercies are new every morning and He makes me new. My life in all it's fragility and frailty is held together in His hands. Hands gloved in grace amazing, never-ending compassion & insurmountable love. He restores my soul. I will wait on the Lord. My heart waits for Him.
