The journey begins....

There is one God and Father of all,
who is above all and through all and in all.
In Him we breathe and move and have our being.
(Ephesians 4:6;  Acts 17:28)


Lord, penetrate me with this truth ~
with the pure, simple truth of of these words.

There is such simplicity and pure clarity in Your Word
that is so different from the complexity and confusion of the way I live.

I want to shed the confusion and live in Your clarity.
It is in You that I have my being.
So simple.
Don't let me complicate it anymore, Lord.

Life has convoluted the truth for so long,
but now is the time to shed the lies
and find my being solely in You.

I sit before You now
ready and willing to shed everything 
that defines me other than You.

Strip it all away
so that all that remains of my being
is You and who You created me to be.

I'm ready, Lord.



Remove what can be shaken, that is, created things --
so that what cannot be shaken may remain.
(Hebrews 12:27)
