"He delights in me, for reasons I cannot fathom, i suppose simply just because He delights to."
anyway..
I has been a long while since I've posted much of anything. And this moment calls for reflection.It's Wednesday, but not an ordinary Wednesday. It's my last Wednesday of classes for the year. Its a Wednesday that started with unpredicted showers and has developed beautifully to a radiantly sunny San Diego day.It's a Wednesday that has come with ease in the midst of deep stresses. It's a Wednesday that significantly marks the greater passing of a week allowing hope for next week's arrival and the lingering opportunities still available.
It's the ending of a semester, the opening of a summer. It just pleads for reflection! This semester has been amazing. I've experienced new facets of life- mostly joys- that I never necessarily expected to encounter. This reflection most powerfully screams the praise of God's sovereignty and the perfect peace and joy of being in His perfect will.
FIRST, God has brought me personally to a deeper love and awe of who
He is! There is an indescribable richness in pursing the Lord. There is intimacy in struggle, and in holding hands. I am truly held preciously in the Sovereign hand of the LORD Almighty. He delights in me! He lavishes His mercies fresh each morning and keeps His eyes lovingly on me throughout the day. He provides. Opportunities, challenges, the Words I need, the touch, the filling of His Holy Spirit of promise, His joy of salvation, His wisdom and discernment for the steps i must take. He guides me through slippery slopes of decision and looks me in the eyes, face to face through my hurt. He wraps His arms of righteousness around me each night as I fall to sleep and greets me each morning with steadfast love and genuine hope. He assures me of who I am. He gives me worth. He values me. His love pursues me to the innermost parts of my darkened heart and rationale. He instills passion for His glory, provokes good works and develops my tender compassion for His Bride and a broken heart for the lost. My words fail. My songs fall short. My heart aches to give Him His rightful portion of praise and thanksgiving and I can not. It is never enough. He is a good Teacher, a constant Support, a Friend, an Intercessor and He loves and delight in me!
i meant to go on, but i think it better to end here.
selah.
