god meets girl

3.2.04
this morning i was shown a new form of waiting.

so many times i feel as though i've fallen away from you, that i lack the motivation to even come near you. but that is pride. to think that i could somehow have the power to pull myself from the powerful grasp of your love for me. how foolish my perspective is, and how often i believe that foolishness. it is not me that has chosen to pull away, but you who have allowed me to rise to a new height by struggling. my desires (or lack thereof) always remain in your grace. i am content to be filled with whatever faith you are giving me -- even if it is little. you say, for through the grace given to me I say to everyone among you not to think more highly of himself than he ought to think; but to think so as to have sound judgment, as God has allotted to each a measure of faith. the most significant part of that statement is what is omitted. you do not give a quantity to that faith, but rather it is just faith. and if you are to allot an increasing amount of faith, would it not also follow that you allot a decreasing amount of faith?

i wait, content in the faith, be it little or much, that you have given to me.
