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!

Exposed

I have read that the Bible is sharper than a double-edged sword. Its blade is used to open me up and expose my every thought and deed before God. I am laid bare by it. That may seem like a terrifying thought but it is a thought that feels me with confidence. The One holding the blade is the Great Physician. He is examining my life to expose the cancer of sin and then cut it out before it can spread. He has saved me. Now He is sanctifying me because I am NOT THERE YET. I can have total boldness to approach God because I know He knows the battles of temptation that I have to fight. He chose to battle similar temptations Himself. He knows and is now interceding for me.
