Colossians 1 assures us that we were created by Him and for Him.
There is a desire within us that never seems to be filled.
If you find yourself weary at the end of the day, you are not alone. Our souls grow tired and weak with every passing moment of striving on our own. The simple truth is, we were made to function on every level of life walking along side our Father.
Until we are truly connected and in communion with God on a continual basis in heaven, we will grow tired. He is refining us here on earth. All the desires of your heart, mind, and spirit are meant to be filled by Him.
When you're tired, know that we all are. In those moments, embrace the fact that He wants to "fill your life with good things, and renew your youth" (Psalm 103). He knows what we need, and knows we need to grow weary and tired to acknowledge where our strength comes from.
What a beautiful picture He is painting in our lives. Strokes of blue like the skies and strokes of red like pain all come together for our freedom as he orchestrates all things for our good.
This is a story where you end up at His feet at the beginning and the end. He is continually drawing us to Himself.
Lean back into the open arms of grace.
Joey, I love to hear the words of your heart. They speak to me and remind me that I am not alone in my weariness, I look forward to your next post,
