Every year, in honor of this, the first day of class, I like to think about what it is that standard, 18 year old freshmen can’t know that seems obvious to me. In other words, I try to make myself aware of the profound gap in the life experience I have had, as someone born in the early/mid-60s,...

God calls us to be both compassionate and passionate. To have reverence for God and man.

GRACE (Laura Story)

My heart is so proud. My mind is so unfocused. I see the things You do through me as great things I have done. And now You gently break me, then lovingly You take me and hold me as my father and mold me as my maker.

Chorus: I ask you: “How many times will you pick me up, when I keep on letting you down? And each time I will fall short of Your glory, how far will forgiveness abound?” And you answer: ” My child, I love you. And as long as you’re seeking My face, You’ll walk in the pow’r of My daily sufficient grace.” At times I may grow weak and feel a bit discouraged, knowing that someone, somewhere could do a better job. For who am I to serve You?I know I don’t deserve You. And that’s the part that burns in my heart and keeps me hanging on.  Chorus* I ask you: “How many times will you pick me up, when I keep on letting you down? And each time I will fall short of Your glory, how far will forgiveness abound?” And you answer: ” My child, I love you. And as long as you’re seeking My face, You’ll walk in the pow’r of My daily sufficient grace.” You are so patient with me, Lord. As I walk with You, I’m learning what Your grace really means. The price that I could never pay was paid at Calvary. So, instead of trying to repay You, I’m learning to simply obey You by giving up my life to you For all that You’ve given to me. Chorus:  I ask you: “How many times will you pick me up, when I keep on letting you down? And each time I will fall short of Your glory, how far will forgiveness abounds?” And you answer: ” My child, I love you. And as long as you’re seeking My face, You’ll walk in the pow’r of My daily sufficient grace.”

I, the Lord, made you, and I will not forget you. I have swept away your sins like a cloud. I have scattered your offenses like the morning mist. Oh, return to me, for I have paid the price to set you free.

-Isaiah 44:22 (via jesussaveme)

Lord God I have never spoken to You,

But now I want to say “How do you do?”

You see God, they told me you didn’t exist

And like a fool I believed all this.

last night from a shell hole I saw Your sky,

I figured right then they had told me a lie.

Had I taken time to see the things You...
