Taken from my journal entry from tonight
But in this all, there is a greater mystery still. It is that of learning what it means to crucify myself to the fullest, and not with sorrow, but abounding joy. It is learning to praise You because You alone are worthy, not because of anything I have or will receive. It is learning to say, “Yes Lord,” in every circumstance regardless of trial, difficulty, or pain, because I choose to have the knowledge of who You are first and foremost. It is learning not to be swept up in the moments and situations of this world, but instead, swept up by who You are. It is about You and me in its own entity. It’s about not just knowing that You are more than enough, but letting You be more than enough. It’s about running to You in every circumstance, not just when I find myself in need. It’s about being put in my right position before You, Creator of earth, but also receiving the grace You have given to know You intimately. It’s about all of these things and so much more, because there is a greater mystery still. It’s a mystery that I cannot come to know in its fullest in this lifetime, but one I shall strive to seek evermore. There is an endless mystery that lies deep within You, the triune Godhead, and it is within that mystery I pray I always find myself.
