How is your soul?
Is it tired, empty, anxious, and/or fear-filled? It is ok to ask for help. The
truth is…none of us has it together. We are all messy, like children playing in
mud, and we all need the grace of God to intercede for us. Our weakness and
lack are arenas for his grace to run rampant and flow like a river in the
wasteland. Lord Jesus come quickly to help me. Come quickly to quench my
thirst. I thirst for you. I confess I often search for thirst-quenchers
anywhere else but in God’s fullness. I just want to do it myself. I want
control. I’ll abuse the earthly remedies you have blessed me with, because I
want the outcome of faith, but don’t want to perform the grunt work required. I
want to be my own Savior. Christ, thank you for quickly reminding me of your
full love, full joy, organic righteousness—found by laying aside my
independence and gripping the hand of my faithful friend Jesus: provider,
sustainer, and strength of my soul.
