Messengers of your love...

What an honor it is, O God, to be your vessels of peace,
that you have granted us wisdom to overcome conflict.

What privileged do we have, to be your hands and feet of compassion,
that you have created us in your image that we may be sensitive to
the needs of those around us.

Lord I stand humbled, that you have created us for good works,
that we have been granted your courage to be a voice of justice to
the oppressed and the needy.

Your grace and your love are for all ages and have been extended to all people.
What an honor it is to be messengers of this great and amazing truth.

Everlasting Love

What love is this, that in my imperfections I am not only desired, but pursued in order that I may be restored and made perfect?  What charge does this leave me?  What more could I want than to share what God has made known to me? 

It is funny how perspective may change daily, or ten times in a minute.  But my God has always been, and will forever remain constant... forever building me up, with his faithful and everlasting love for me.

"I have loved you with an everlasting love; 
therefore I have continued my faithfulness to you.
Again I will build you, and you shall be built."
Jeremiah 31:3b-4a
