Before I take writing
anything any further, I feel like I need to be very pointedly honest. Writing
anything, for anyone to read, completely freaks me out because I am the textbook
definition of inadequate. I am totally: “lacking the quality or quantity required;
insufficient for a purpose.” If there is ever a time that it seems like I know
anything, it is purely God. Because, at any given moment that façade will fall
and my inadequacy will be glaringly apparent.
Anything good in me
can only be Him. God and I have been Through this life together. (You and God
have too.) I know God is absolutely the only reason I am still walking on this
sphere. God has used His Word, prayer, and Mason, Bryce, & Kirstyn to keep
me clinging to Him. They have been my life line. I do not type these next few
words lightly: without them I would have utterly given up. There were many
nights when I quite literally fell asleep on the open, tear soaked, pages of my
Bible. God’s mercy, grace, and love are just scandalous and He completely blows
me away whenever He reaches through me and shows Himself.
So, from the depths of
my being I proclaim (because I know) that God’s Word is Life. One of the
greatest joys of life is telling someone the truth of God’s Word. I am
decidedly inadequate in and of myself but His Word is alive and active – it is
real and it is relevant. There is nothing that I can give to anyone that is
more valuable than God’s Word.
Psalm
119:43 “Never take Your word of truth from my mouth, for
I have put my hope in Your laws.”
