You won't relent

I'm super thankful that God doesn't walk away from me when I am not responsive to him.  I'm so grateful that he pursues me even when I am not pursuing him.  And I am so glad that my voice reaches his ears and heart no matter when I speak and no matter how long it has been since I have spoken with him. 

Have you ever asked God to relent with you?  To give up on you or give up on a course of action you feel he wants you to do?  God does not and cannot and will not relent!  WHY?  So many times I ask why?  Just give me a break God (yep, insert whine into that phrase).  God doesn't relent because he sees what I cannot, he knows what I don't.  If my life was a huge painting the difference in God's perspective and mine is this: he sees the whole painting, I see about 1/8 of a centimeter of it.  That's the reality.  And that's why God won't relent. 

I'm glad he won't relent when I beg and plead.  I'm glad that he knows my true heart rather than what I think my heart is saying or wanting.  I'm awed that he wants to be the fire in me.  Thank God today that he won't relent but continues his pursuit of his creation! 

You won't relent

Join TOMS One for One There is plenty of criticism out there for TOMS and its short term solutions. Critics don't even buy the "at least they are doing something" statement.  However, you have to start somewhere. And every bit of awareness helps something go from short term to long term.  We all have a part to play. Read a Road Map Day One of the many reasons I would stink at The Amazing Race is because I never did learn how to read a road map well.  I remember doing worksheets and class lessons on maps and I was able to skate by to pa
