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!

Unlikely Candidate

I tend to think that I have nothing to offer God. I am flawed by sin. I am paralyzed by fear. I held captive by past memories. I have an unproven track record. Yet God wants me. He is asking me to take those things that I most regret, dislike, and fear about myself... and throw them before Him. He can then make it as tools to refine me to a perfect candidate to display His power and might. I am NOT THERE YET, but I must give up what is not in my power to change... that He might reign in power through the change He can make in me.
