May

A month of lingering light in the western sky, spanned with stars. Of currents of joy, flowing swift and deep. It is for freedom He has made us free. A month of sounding the depths of the gospel of grace. He has done what no one else could do, and so we do not have to be afraid. He leads us by the hand into a land of green and gold. A month of running back to the Protector of our souls. Beautiful Savior, I’m Yours forever. Of learning diminishment and giving Him the glory, of pursuing wholeheartedness. My Savior on that cursed tree. A month of rekindled flame for the kingdom of God, of seeking purpose and gladness and beauty. Of fellowship with so many who are serving our King faithfully and well, of a burning lamp passed from heart to heart, keeping the world lit with radiance from within. A month of roses and rain. Of preparation and acceptance with joy. Of bone-deep exhaustion and doing the work He has called me to do. Thy will be done. 

“The desire of our soul is for Your name and for the remembrance of You.” – Isaiah 26:8
