Prepare to be bombarded by my (or those stolen by me) pictures, words, snapshots, memes, thoughts, photos, rants, drawings, and issues.
All the crazy, none of the commitment.
P.S. The rumor that all redheads have a temper is untrue...but I do have one.

Broken Heart's Prayer

Lord, give me a heart
solely torn for you.

Be the surgeon of my soul
heal me Lord and make me bold,
to you only, am I sold.
Finished in this world of lies
rid of all selfish ties.

Toil align my steps and life
to always follow in the Light.

All to you my breath is owed
all for you is my love shown.

Bringing glory to your name
my triumph bring you praise, Oh Lord.

Every breath a gift, a mission
to live each moment driven
seeking to fulfill your will.
May my walk reflect your vision.

The Son chase away black night,
clarity to come (in) with the tide.

Worship may every action be,
obedience held in each word, each deed.

Striding straight, along the path
towards gates of pearl, unjust reward.

Unfailing justice befell none
saved by Grace and the Son.
Blood drawn in sin, hate
ultimate sacrifice of love, eternal life
not for a few.
Every heart broken by the Word,
handed over in love of you.

He who created land and see
knew my heart, gave all for me.
Sinner with a soul of coal
undeserving (accepted to the fold).







I am, it is, we are... a work in progress.

S.W.A.G.






Saved
With
Amazing
Grace





Think back...
Think back to when you were separated from Him, in darkness and living in sin.
Now think about where you are now, living in light, free in His Amazing Grace.

Change is abounding when you give yourself wholly up to Christ, asking for the greatest gift known to man, a second chance. When one becomes filled with the Holy Spirit it is no longer up to you alone to change yourself to align with God's will for your life. The Holy Spirit's refining fire will expel the sin from your heart, giving you an undivided heart, aimed towards God's way and filled with a passion for glorifying the Creator.

Just today I had a conversation about how modern day Christians forget that humility is important while teaching Christ's story. So often as believers we focus on the failings of others to make ourselves feel worthy and forget about our own past failings. We forget about treating others with Christ's love and instead pass judgement. It is important to remember that even Christians have sinned. All have fallen short of the Glory of God. If the Christian community could learn to conscientiously practice living as loving and humble servants of the Creator that deserve death and use our past experiences with sin to better understand nonbelievers and connect with them in efforts to exemplify God's Grace, imagine what kind of loving and thoughtful community we could grow. All because we live in the knowledge of His GRACE.
