"I do not ask that you take them out of the world, but that you keep them from the evil one. They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. Sanctify them in the truth; your word is truth. As you sent me into the world, so I have sent them into the world. And for their sake I consecrate myself that they may also be sanctified in truth. I do not ask these only, but also for those who will believe in me through their word, that they may be one, just as you, Father, are in me, and I in You, that they also may be in us, so that the world may believe that you have sent me." John 17: 15-21
isn't it a wonder to think that we are a part of something so much bigger than ourselves? we are in the hand of the Lord. my life is nothing in and of itself, but belongs to and is sustained by God.
isn't it amazing?
may the Lord's will be done.
Wow Kalie, I didn't know you were a blogger! I'll have to check your posts daily now. I often wondered how people can just share their lives on the web like that, but now that I you doing this I'll have to take a page out of your book.
ReplyDeleteAnd this post is really good, and sometimes we don't understand how great the Father's for us is. We need to dwell more on His word to understand that.
Thanks Val! That means a lot; I was feeling self-conscious at first to share it, but I'm glad I am and it's very encouraging to hear you like it! :]
