The Only Rock of My Salvation

O Changeless God, Under the conviction of thy Spirit I learn that the more I do, the worse I am, the more I know, the less I know, the more holiness I have, the more sinful I am, the more I love, the more there is to love. O wretched man that I am! O Lord, I have a wild heart and cannot stand before thee; I am like a bird before a man. How little I love thy truth and ways! I neglect prayer, by thinking I have prayed enough and earnestly, by knowing thou hast saved my soul. Of all hypocrites, grant that I may not be an evangelical hypocrite, who sins more safely because grace abounds, who tells his lusts that Christ's blood cleanseth them, who reasons that God cannot cast him into hell, for he is saved, who loves evangelical preaching, churches, Christians, but lives unholily. My mind is a bucket without a bottom, with no spiritual understanding, no desire for the Lord's Day, every learning but never reaching the truth, always at the gospel-well but never holding water. Give me a broken hear that yet carries home the water of grace.- Paradoxes/Valley of Vision

Wild Bills and God

I am sitting in our coffee shop on campus. I am studying Early Western Civ and trying to discern a topic for my research paper. :] I am stuck on this school thing. Please pray for me this weekend, I am going to get a lot of school stuff done and really seek understanding... So please be praying! I am so thankful for such an intentional family that intends to glorify and edify the name of Jesus Christ. :] I am also thankful for one person who continually encourages me in the faith. I feel a lack of that on my part.

Prayer:
- Understanding for school subjects
- Genuine relationship with Christ would remain constant.
- Focus would be to continue in growing in the Word and to continually be preparing for the woman God is calling me to be.
- That Jonathan would learn as much about God as he can before he leaves. :]
- Daisy in Guam! :]
- Redeemer Church
