I am a rose

"I am a rose; I am a lily". . . Song of Solomon 2:1
describes how the bridegroom views his bride.
My journey of reconciliation to God and acceptance
of His truth about me has brought me to rejoicing
in this declaration. I AM His rose and His lily.
I am lovely in His eyes to the point of Jesus sacrificing
everything so my sin would not keep us apart.
I am a delightful rose. . . and I am thankful.

Delightful Rose

I am free to live for YOU


Freedom comes at a cost. I am free to live abundantly, purposefully and forever because Jesus covered my sinner's debt with His own life. And now I am free to live for Him. Will I limp along in my own understanding or will I soar - empowered by the Holy Spirit? I've been limping a lot more than I would like these days. Part of the journey, I've been told. And yet I know "surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life."
