Quickie

I realize I haven't written in months and to say a lot has gone on is an understatement. Life has changed dramatically a few different times, I've neglected the Lord, been received by the Lord, and once again seen he is truly the only source of abundant life.

I saw this prayer this morning from the book Killing Calvinism by Greg Dutcher and I appreciated it so I thought I'd share it here!


Mighty God,
Thank you for giving me eyes, ears, memory, and intellect. You have enabled me to see the wonder of your sovereign mercy throughout your Word. Had you not chosen me, I would not be your child. Had you not loved me first, never would I have loved you at all.
May I never be more enamored with the theology that helps me see these things clearly than with seeing you. Forgive me for the times when I have made my understanding of you and your saving ways an idol rather than an aid.
When others see me, may they see a person completely captivated by your glory and humbled by your mercy.
For Jesus’ sake, amen.

I'll write more another day...
