Continuing from R’s Rue I don’t know if I’d mentioned that for awhile I have been listening to Pastor Rich Villodas. His sermons have been a balm to my spirit. I’m given hard hitting truth, but it a way that teaches, but doesn’t condemn. No fire and brimstone, but solid truth. I recently ordered his book, The Narrow Path. And as I’m in church today, the second song talks about the narrow way being hard, but it being the path I want to take. I should have realized my worship experience from song to preaching would turn me upside down. Turns out, I didn’t have a clue what my soul would endure. The sermon being about was it ‘worth it’ to follow God without question, without doubt, understanding waiting is not comfortable, but a part of the process. Was I willing to acknowledge its worth despite my years of waiting. I didn’t have time to contemplate this until the song that allows people to come forward, and make decisions. It was during this song that I remember what I had wanted for...
This is beautiful! The last section really spoke to me. You should write a whole book of poetry my friend!
ReplyDeleteThat's right, we are human beings, we are not God, so we are not perfect! Hugs
ReplyDeletewithout modifiers....wow,...that is so true. For me....it's our self we separated out from the goodness. The fear, the ego, etc. Those Modifiers...wow again. That word will remain with me today. I'll think modifiers whenever fear or delusions come up.
