rediscovering eden
Who am I, that the Lord of all the earth
Would care to know my name
Would care to feel my hurt
Who am I, that the bright and morning Star
Would choose to light the way
For my ever wandering heart
Not because of who I am
But because of what You've done
Not because of what I've done
But because of who You are
I am a flower quickly fading
Here today and gone tomorrow
A wave tossed in the ocean
A vapor in the wind
Still You hear me when I'm calling
Lord, You catch me when I'm falling
And You've told me who I am
I am Yours, I am Yours
Who Am I, that the eyes that see my sin
Would look on me with love
and watch me rise again
Who Am I, that the voice that calmed the sea
Would call out through the rain
And calm the storm in me
Whom shall I fear
Whom shall I fear
I am Yours

I am amazed, truly, truly amazed.
While my situation has not changed, and in fact, got a few times worse, I remain strong and rooted in the Lord.
I don’t know what the future holds, really. It is a huge uncertainty, and if anything happens there will be certain decisions I will have to make. I am very very tempted to make an unconventional decision, but we’ll deal with that IF the time comes.
But as far as possible, if I am able to, I will not choose one of two options, but one of three. That’s as much as I will say.
I thank God for the strength and resilience and clear-headedness He has given me. I do not tear. Not one drop. And it’s not a facade! It’s REAL.
And I know that in all things, God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose. (Romans 8:28)
(From 2nd Corinthians 4)
7But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us. 8We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; 9persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed… 16Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. 17For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. 18So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.
