Hum - great day, rough evening. Being reminded that things aren't the way they were supposed to be. I'm sure everyone can agree that not all is well in the world - both on the large scale, around me locally, and in my own heart.
I'm so thankful for Jesus, the steadfastness of His eternally perfect character, and the depth of His sacrificial love.
So after a good cry (nothing new :)), what'd I do - sent a little email to thank some of the guy friends in my life for pursuing holiness (I took these guys friends and their consistency of character for granted in college), put on some Shawn McDonald and started talking to God while baking. There's something about using simple ingredients to make something beautiful and delicious as a blessing for others that soothes my soul and mind so that I can converse with my Maker.
Oh, and just so you don't worry, my cyber friends, nothing bad happened to me, I was just hit afresh with depravity. And then hit afresh with God's gracious restoration taking place through Christ in my heart, locally, and on the large scale. Looking forward to the day of completion. . .
