God is Alive

I don't need to site scripture to prove that God exists. He is alive in my every breath, in my beating heart, in his intricate designs of the world. Reflecting on the past, I see now what I was blind to then. I was stuck in darkness. I was a lost soul, sucking life from people and leeching onto anyone that I trusted my emotions with. I was sinking slowly into a pit of fire without knowing that I was the one dousing myself in kerosene. But then, He saved me. He saved me by allowing me to light and burn in my own fire. And now, the old self, my old chains slowly are burning to death. And my new body, mind and spirit emerge with a likeness of Christ. Each day a part of my past dies, and a promise of my eternal life is planted and watered with the Lord's word. 

God, you are my hero. You are my King. You're my father even when I rebel. You are forever burning. Forever interceding for my sins. You sent your son to redeem me. Your plan is amazing. I am awestruck each day at your beauty. Whether it's the simple breeze that tosses my hair, or the indulgence of your word; you fill me up with truth. Thank you Lord.
