(no subject)
oh jerusalem, i longed to gather you under my wings, but you were not willing...
this weekend i had a moment where i realized how unwilling i have been
i love Jesus and i miss feeling close to him
i have been unwilling to go deeper.
i have been proud. and scared. and complacent.
but i think of rembrant's portrait of the prodigal. and the Father with open arms
i am thankful. contrite. and wanting to be close to Jesus--my first love.
