| I am the daughter of a King. And oh, how wonderful you are, my Lord. How wonderful, how wonderful.
Colossians 1:21-23
This includes you who were once far away from God. You were his enemies, separated from him by your evil thoughts and actions. Yet now he has reconciled you to himself through the death of Christ in his physical body. As a result, he has brought you into his own presence, and you are holy and blameless as you stand before him without a single fault.
But you must continue to believe this truth and stand firmly in it. Don't drift away from the assurance you received when you first heard the Good News.

| belieffaith, pursuit.
i cried a little, and by little i mean mississippi river-esque,
out of desperation, deep down, within my being.
it was something i couldn't dismiss any longer,
something i couldn't keep, i eventually explode.
it happens a lot of the time..
everything is always alright;
i'm not wearing one of those masks
or anything preposterous of that sort.
i just carried a burden i didn't let anyone see
i carried the guilt of a lack of time
i carried the guilt of a desperation growing.
i know what i need. i've always known what i needed.
that was never the problem.
putting enough of my devotion in what cannot be seen,
cannot be touched, cannot completely wrap me in his arms
and tell me how okay everything will eventually be,
i have to work towards.
i know what i need, that's never been the problem.
i know what i have to do, i've always known what needed to be done.
to just do it, has been my constant struggle.
you've always had my devotion, you've always had my heart, all of it.
you've always had me, all of me, everything i am, my heart, my soul, my mind
with all the might within me.
that will never, ever, ever changed.
you deserve everything i am.
i have been negligent, forgive me.
i have been arrogant, forgive me.
to be vigorous, to have effort, energy, enthusiasm, of Christ Jesus.
to be pioneering, to be a foot solider, of Christ Jesus.
Eph1:1
to be an apostle of Christ Jesus,
is my intention. | | |
| fear.you have no place here
you never did.
like unwelcomed guest,
we won't let you in.

| it is the man who is the missionary,it is not his words. His character is his message. You can take nothing greater, you need take nothing less. All you need is Love. And through that which beat in your chest, can you show Christ. You become the breathing of an eternal spirit through this temporal world. Every common day is made of the words and acts, are they of Love?
Are they of patience? Of kindness? Generosity? Humility? Courtesy? Unselfishness? Good temperament? Guilelessness? Sincerity?
"For life, with all it yields of joy or woe
And hope and fear,
Is just our chance o' the prize of learning love, -
How love might be, hath been indeed, and is."
Where Love is, God is. He that dwelleth in Love dwelleth in God. God is Love. Therefore love. Without distinction, without calculation, without procrastination, love.
"I shall pass through this world once. Any good thing therefore that I can do, or any kindness that I can show to any human being, let me do it now. Let me not defer it or neglect it, for I shall not pass this way again." | | |
