life a river,
time the current,

God is faithful to me, and it is becoming more and more evident in the small things that He does.
Over the past two months, I have been in a lot of transitions. And God's provision and providence have been moving me all along the way. His hand of protection has been all around me.Even financially, which was probably the most evident to me. I was saved over $1,400 (despite myself). I have a new place to live which is far better than where I previously was, I have a new job which I love even more than my old one. I have new friends that unconditionally support me spiritually and emotionally.
All I can really do is think of how much I deserve just the opposite, but God's grace is overwhelming.
His love is impossible to grasp, yet possible to employ. Simply astounding

But like all gates that we pass through in our Christian lives, there are the struggles.
This verse has been coming to my mind quite a bit.
1 John 1:9"If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness."
I ask God for forgiveness & mercy a lot, because I need a lot.
God changes your heart, so that you love and obey not because you "have" to,
but because you "want" to.
Love is never forced, because when it is... it ceases to be Love.
