Where oh where is this time going and why is it in such a hurry to pass me by? The slower I pace myself, the more I stop to enjoy the little moments of each day, the quicker they seem to disappear... Sigh...
With each passing day I'm finding myself more and more undone. With each passing day I'm finding that I'm understanding even less of God's methods and moving amongst humanity. Just when I think I've got a pretty good handle on how He's 'supposed' to operate, my box is shattered to pieces and I find myself staring dumbfounded at His hand. With each passing day I'm finding myself drawn face down before His Majesty and Holiness. WIth each passing day I feel like a child exploring the world for the first time...
This is the consistent walking pattern of my journey of late. Every where I turn I feel like I'm face to face with yet another preconceived notion or idea or paradigm that needs changing. I have never felt more 'out of control' and so 'free' at the same time. It's almost liberating to be walking again with new eyes... hear not that my beliefs have changed in any way... rather they're just being stretched... I feel as though my eyes are being opened to the amazing depth of His greatness. With each new revelation I'm inspired, encouraged, and liberated!
How is it that for so long I've been able to keep my God contained in the walls of my small little box....? .... I haven't been able too... and thus I'm finally seeing the magnitude of His power in my life and humanity all around. How is it that I've been trying so hard to define all His ways through my meager little brainpower... I haven't been able too... and thus I'm challenged in all areas of my life and thoughts. How is it that I've had any right to put explanation to His moving? Oh my gosh... I have been so arrogant to even think I can explain Him or His ways... How is it that I've missed so many of the joyous moments in life even admist turmoil and stresses of day to day living? No longer... like a child running amuck the world... I run wildly with flailing arms laughing hysterically and feeling full of energy.
What an amazingly HUGE GOD we have! What an amazingly POWERFUL GOD we serve! What an amazingly MERCIFUL AND COMPASSIONATE GOD we're loved by! My heart is so overwhelmed by WHO our GOD is! How incredibly life transforming are His ways!
