I am not there yet! That is my life. I have been called out of this world by Christ Jesus, my Savior. I am forgiven by the shedding of His sacrificial blood. I am being transformed into His likeness now. I am not there yet though. I am not perfect. I am not sinless. I am not holy. I am not completely conformed to His likeness. I am still on my journey. This blog serves as a learning tool for myself and other pilgrims making this same journey. This is not a blog that will be about the events or people in my life. It is about the relationship that I have with my Lord and Savior. This blog will chronicle my journey... the ups, downs, self evaluations, desires, and discoveries. This is my journey... I am NOT THERE YET!

I have been trying to figure out my role in the grander scheme of things. God has such a great view of the working of everything in the universe. His hand moves pieces into place by setting signs and sometimes billboards in view of open hearts and minds. Some people listen and allow God to use them. Others are ignorant of the interceeding hand of God. I am glad to say that I have seen God at work. I have even been able to play a part into God's wonderful plan of salvation and reconciliation. I have wallowed in times when I thought that God was not using me at all though. I have proclaimed His Word to lost souls. I have seen so many either be completely unchanged by It's truth or vehemently reject It altogether. I have questioned why I must be faithful to keep preaching when no one is listening. I have also celebrated in seasons of bountiful harvest. I do not know what role I have really played in anyone's life in regard to their relationship with Christ because I am NOT THERE YET, but one day I will. I eagerly await that day. I will keep preaching until then.
