The Reason for the World

I must confess that lately I have been focusing on everything but the most important thing. My faith has, as of late, seemed rather weak and my hope, dim. A new semester loaded with information and demands has come down on me. Six months of stress is culminating in a job change. Some days it's hard just to get out of bed.



So I complain, I pray, I doubt, I ask for help - humble desperation mixed with sinful exasperation.



God,

Take my imperfect obedience and my failing strength - replace it with the perfection and power found only in your Son who died to give a reason for the world.
