undivided

Can you imagine a completely undivided life?

One in which the answers were always clear and easy.

The grey areas fell nicely into black and white.

The purposes and the resources aligned.

The tension and the solution were comfortable.

My will and His will were unmistakably the same.

Until then, I’m praying…

That my actions always come before my words

That my heart rejoices at redemption as much as it cries at injustice

That I celebrate before I complain

That I understand before I judge

That I listen more than I speak

That I seek until I find

That I love without comparison

That I serve without expectation

That I give as much as I take

That I live with intention

Inspired by grace

Sustained by hope

Forgiving

Laughing

Remembering 

 I have only one life that was never supposed to be about me

Until I can sit in your presence and understand your beauty

May my heart rest in knowing You are the same

Yesterday

Today

Forever
