A CONTRITE HEART

A crown of beauty instead of ashes, 

the oil of joy instead of mourning,
and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair.

My sacrifice is a broken spirit;  

a broken and contrite heart you will not despise.

 

FIERCE!!!

HUNGRY LIKE THE WOLF

Ready for take off!!!

FIRE TO GLORY

From the Fire to glory

*

I am not afraid. Not because I know what is to come but because I know the One who is, who was and who is to come.

  *  

I am learning to see the Consuming Fire as pure love. I am willing to stay still while the flames melt away all the hard and callous parts. Until the furnace re-invents my life and purifies my heart; until I learn to share more, love more, trust more and hope more clearly in the bright Morning Star. Then, finally, there will be more glory too.

KEEP CALM AND BELT UP!

LIVING IN LOVE

And so we know and rely on the love God has for us.

God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them.

THE STREETS

ECSTASY

LIKE THE RAIN

Whatever you're willing to walk away from determines what you can be trusted with. 

~

Breaking hearts of stone so they can be lifted and offered up above. Waiting, being crushed, still hoping in the midst of deepest despair but never surrender. In numbing, palpable pain You are sovereign and Your providential hand is holding me now, so much so now, more than ever.
