SCAMPERING
There is something in me, a restless scampering. My eyes, on frantic search for my heart’s pampering? From person to person my heart is on the hunt, Desperate to gain that for some pain I may blunt? Does it depend on me to find what brings me peace? I fear that if that’s true,…
Practicing the virtues of Christ
We begin our journey with Jesus with salvation. As wonderful and miraculous as that is, it is just the beginning. What follows is an onward journey of sanctification – the process of spiritual formation, growth and maturity. God does this work in us, confirming us to His character from the inside out.
