alive and... well, tired!

hi friends, sorry it has been so long since I have posted here! things have been busy, busy, busy! I hope to sit down and write a nice long update in the next few days. so keep your eyes peeled! I'll just leave you with this verse.

For this reason we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to ask that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; that you may walk worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing Him, being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God; strengthened with all might, according to His glorious power, for all patience and longsuffering with joy;  giving thanks to the Father who has qualified us to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in the light.       Colossians 1:9-11

5.1.11

I could sing of your love forever... Because I know you, God, because I talk with you and listen to you and have experienced your love, your great faithfulness, your overwhelming grace toward me. And then, as I sing, I am overcome with love for you and words fail me. I am undone. Your love doesn’t make sense. You love me? I could sing of the greatness of your love, the mystery of your mercy, the depth of your kindness forever.

Then, all I can really do is say “thank you” and receive it, letting perfect love have its way in my heart and life.

May my life be a sweet fragrance to you, oh my Lord, my God.
