What it sounds like...,what it feels like......,what it looks like......
As i sit here and fight the temptation to pull out my rock and mortar, I think how easy it would be to just erect another wall. Protection becomes a constant in my countenance. Always looking around the corner for hurt to rear it's ugly demeanor. It always looks worse coming from someone you trust with your heart yet they never fail to bruise your emotions and somewhat, though unintentionally, trample your heart.
With all these emotions flooding in, I must choose God's way. How merciful He is towards us and forgiving.
How I , too, desire to partake of such riches; which is Love that surpasses all understanding. And though building a wall around me would be my typical knee jerk reaction, I want God more! I need God more!
And to know that He cares for me more than that hurt ever will or that His love can cover me more than any wall can; no matter its height.
"But when the goodness of God and His love for mankind appeared, He saved us- not by works of righteousness that we had done, but according to His mercy through the washing of regeneration and renewal by the Holy Spirit." ~Titus 3:4-5~
