Inspired by . . . reconciliation
It is my responsibility to accept the offering of grace.
If I do not, I live in contempt, anger, malice, self-sufficiency - - enmity with God.
You have taught me the necessity of a Mediator, a Messiah.
I embrace You with all my heart,
a king to rule me,
a prophet to guide me,
a priest to take away my sin and death.

The beloved Son.
Who teaches me,
not to guide myself,
not to obey myself,
not to try to rule and conquer sin myself,
but to cleave to the One Who will do all for me.
To save me is Christ's work.
To come to Him by faith is my work.
"Lord, increase our faith."
Blessings,
Inspired by prayer excerpts from The Valley of Vision.
Sharing inspiration here:
"Lord increase my faith." So where my heart is . . . Lord, increase my faith. And I'm so grateful for how He is continuing working in me. Beautiful post and just love you pictures. Have a wonderful weekend, June. Oh...your book arrived today. THANK YOU! Much love. xoxo
ReplyDeleteStunning! Happy, beautiful weekend.

Beautiful! So glad I stopped in from Still Saturday. Blessings!
ReplyDeleteTruly explained and truly part of our everyday world. He is all I can count on every night, every day, and forever and ever. My knee-jerk responses as I'm waking or walking can seem that I'm filled with frustration. But He always breaks through and shows His love to me. Your photos fit right in. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteWell said, June. We're not in His will when we try to take on His role... silly when you think about it really.
ReplyDeleteAmen to your prayerful words, June. We need Him so ...
ReplyDeleteThe Lord has blessed you with the gift of writing. With every visit I feel my faith increasing. Thank you.
