Someone I love and admire (David Pressau) once pointed me to the poem of this same title and I must say it has been my experience with the Almighty God, my loving Heavenly Father, that He continually pursues me around every corner, in every pit, on every mountaintop, never letting me stray very far before He graciously and mercifully leads me back pouring our Amazing Grace upon my life. The same God that I ran hard to avoid. Why does He do this? Because of the sacrificial love of Jesus, who laid down His life as propitiation for my sins and lavished me with the riches of His glory, His righteousness imputed to me! Oh my soul, sing praises to the God who saved you. Sing praises to the King, the hound of heaven.
This blog is dedicated to Him. A collection of thoughts, experiences, and lessons that display His amazing grace! The unfolding story of His work in my life as He continues to pursue me and sanctify me that I might one day be like His Son. It was birthed out of time in my life when I was sowing to many things in this world at the expense of sowing to the Spirit. In His mercy and kindness He has shown me my sinful heart and has gently led me to this place where I am honored and excited to sow to eternity! No more computer games for hours at a time (half an hour a day and you can feel free to ask me how I'm doing with that), instead it will be time in His word, in prayer, and in journaling through this blog in the hopes that He will not only use it for my good but that others might experience His goodness through sharing.
I pray that you are blessed and that He is glorified.
HE IS GOOD! AMEN!
