Miscellany

Haven't had much time to post lately...graduate school has a funny way of beating you into submission and taking you hostage at the conclusion of each semester. Anyway, here's a few things I've heard/read in the past day that continue to ring in my ear...

"Take God at His word, take a deep breath, and get moving. Damn the consequences: He's sovereign." -Found on a blog comment; I took the liberty to add a bit of gusto to it.

"I woke up this morning; I didn't deserve to. But for grace..." -From one of our high school senior's response to a text message that a youth leader sent to him asking, "How have you experienced the Gospel today?" -I love it! Raw, real, and unpolished.

"The Lord makes it hard not to stand in awe of what He does and yet I still doubt. Pray that I will stand in awe of the work He is doing and continue to rely on Him." -From Jordan on Lagniappe's blog, expressing a deep-seated need we all have.

That's one deep and meaningful comment. And the grammar is correct too! I thought the word verification was supposed to prevent that stuff.

On a serious note, loved the post.

Yeah...I didn't think spam made it through those word verification things...oh well, I deleted her.
