You created us to be Your likeness on earth. To represent Your unbounded love. To spend time with us, walking through the garden. We are created to be the steward of the earth. Looking after Your creation with careful consideration. Knowing that it has all been designed by You and is therefore precious and wonderful. Lord that even applies to us. That is a hard statement for me to make. I really don't feel like I am very good. Most of the time I feel like I am down right awful. But You are patient and You are faithful. You rescue me from the pit of despair and draw my focus away from myself. You remind me that although I am destined to fail on my own, that I AM NOT ALONE. We have been created so that Your work will be done through us. Is being done through us, right now. Our witness is not something we can turn on and off. In all that we do we are Your witnesses. We need to remember that often times the strongest witness is a life that appears unchanged by Your grace and mercy. A life that fits in with this world. Lord I pray that You guide us to rebel against the values and images of this world. Lord I pray that You remind us quickly, correct us quickly, at the first choice that begins to separate us from Your path.
in the mighty name of Christ
