Broken and weak I write this log tonight, for some old forgotten wounds have been and are being opened. My life has been going through constant change recently, and to my amazement it seems to still be changing. The amount of things and places of change within a person are already one of the areas of astonishment. What takes my breath away lies in the mysterious ways God causes things to change within us, and keeps the process going on. When He starts working, He doesn’t stop. We never arrive, we stay in process with Him, for the purpose of His work is to be changing us to become like Jesus Christ. I have asked God to reveal and heal my heart, helping me understand why some things seem to be turned upside-down or inside-out. True as one would always find Him, He is causing that which is weak and lame to become strong. Never doubting that the process He takes us through is done with a higher cause, it gives me great pleasure to keep in mind that He is willing to compromise our temporal happiness in order to increase the Chrislikeness that He is working within us. Tired to the point of exhaustion, I realize that we so badly fight against letting go of our own dreams and desires even with the knowledge that within God the untold treasure to be found is life and that in abundance.
Graciously broken, the astonishing peace flowing from the deep place of knowledge and communion with God, my expectation now lies in finding Him and the illumination of the mysteries of His Kingdom. How awesome is our God!
