 | God delights in me… Are you sure God? Have you noticed how impatient I can be and how I want answers to my questions immediately? Do you remember that I am always looking for the fastest checkout line so I won’t have to wait? Or how I get irritated with slow drivers and people who don’t use their turn signal. You must remember… |
God delights in me…
Are you sure God? What about some of the thoughtless things I say or do? Do you cover your eyes and shake your head when something bursts out of my mouth before my brain engages? Are you disappointed when I don’t SEE homeless people because of the fear they will once again ask me for money? Do you love them too?
God delights in me…
Are you sure God? Have you paid attention to all of my scars? There are many scars, which have created a road map to who I have become. The wounds are healed but the scars remain, straining to break open. Unlike the scars on my face, these scars are felt but are unseen. Can you follow the road map to my heart?
God delights in me…
Are you sure God? Maybe you have not noticed my distrust of others, myself or even you. I am sure you are aware that I have trouble trusting others including you. Instead of trusting you to provide for me, I buy stuff to make me happy. Remember the endless shopping trips?
God delights in me…
Are you sure God? Don’t you get irritated with all my questions and doubts? Do you get frustrated when I doubt your love for me? Or when I feel your grace is too much for me or even if I question if you are real? Some days I don't feel your presence..
God delights in me…
Are you sure God? Yes I am sure! This is what you mean to me: “I reached down from on high and took you out of the mighty waters. I delivered you from those who hated you; for they were too mighty for you. They confronted you in the day of your great suffering and distress; but I was there to support you. I brought you out into the open; I delivered you, because I delight in you.” (My paraphrase Ps. 18: 16-19)
God, thank you for your good and faithful love for me!
