Into the Fire

The trouble with learning is it never stops.

And the more I learn, the more I do not know.

And the more I understand, the less I can figure out.

Vast—you are. In every way.

How can simplicity be so utterly complex?

At your feet. Not low enough. Bowed to the ground—face in dirt. Not low enough.

So much you’ve given. Never to be repaid. Impossible.

Inadequate in every way but infused with your Spirit in order to breathe life. To be sustained. To survive in victory. To deliver your hope. Useful through you.

Father, thank you for my life, for saving me from a life of sin, for redeeming this lost soul and making a way to use me for your glory. Thank you for your love, your direction, your grace, your correction, your perfection. Continue to show me your ways, Lord. In the Name of Jesus, Amen.
