thought vomit

I need God’s love to replace myself as my marvel- God’s love that surpasses all understanding- I need that to replace the broken, sinful, filthy vessel that I revere. Why don’t I just jump all over that? This really makes no sense.

I need God’s will to drown out my self-defeating pride- God’s good, pleasing, and perfect will- I need that to drown out the pride that leads to destruction. . Why don’t I just jump all over that? This really makes no sense.

I love how simple God’s word is when he reveals it to me, and I despise how complicated I immediately set out to make it. It’s so beautifully about love before I make it about captivity.

Why do I worry about stuff? According to today’s Oswald Chambers, if I try to “worry it out,” I obliterate God and deserve all I get. It seems nonsensical for me to run so hard after that when my other option is God’s gracious benediction of peace.

All this to say, God’s dealing with me right now, as always (thank God), and getting his glory in his own special (makes no sense to me kind of) way.

Peace out, I’m back to painting. I love and miss you all; sorry it’s been so long.
