sweetness.

my heart is prone to wander. this i know very well.
but he deals kindly with me.
i am his child and he calls me back sweetly.
in my time here, i have seen his sweetness.
in just a year, i've watched him move more clearly than i ever have before.
in things that we (i) normally would think are small...
He's shown me they are HUGE and intimate.
every little movement is a reason to praise.
a cause for joy.
it's made the reality of my frailty oh so clear.
it's caused me to face the fact that i'm full of sin.
over. and over. and over.
he is good and he has poured his grace over me.
he's used people who don't even know him to show himself to me.
to affirm where i am.
his sweetness. his power.
