December 11...
Enter...final's week
''...So too, how often we throw dirt in the air and wail and moan, ripping our clothes and crying, 'where are You, Lord'? - when He's right in our midst, working everything out perfectly..."
- Jon Courson
It is for this week of the semester that my title 'Glimpses of Grace' was coined. It is when grace is most evident, most needed, and most lacking in many lives including my own.
It is just not fun.
And this particular week I solicit your help. We all could use prayer. There is the obvious need of course - supernatural test taking abilities. But with age and responsibility comes a steeper road. There are folks who aren't achieving, rumors of 'dishonesty', troubled relationships, misunderstood intentions, hurt feelings, restless sleep, aching bodies. Our fuses are short and our tanks are empty. Even our favorite soccer field has become a hostile environment.... I got sidelined last game... oops
Pray that I - and WE - remember that He's
right in our midst. That all this stress and pain and ugliness can be transformed to a tapestry of beautiful talent, skill and grace - hard won by
God's grace and power.
Help us remember to seek Him.
Pray.
