maybe

grace has not been grace for quite a while.

but i think ... i'm coming back. or He's coming back. maybe slowly. maybe even tentatively. but reading His word just now, i suddenly realized and thought to myself, oh my god! it's Him again. i know this. i remember this feeling.

He speaks again.

was feeling rather out of it and saw Deborah. a woman of vision, she looked past the seemingly impossible situation her nation faced and lay hold of the hope; of His promises.

maybe life's better if we just see beyond the natural situations, regardless of how hopeless or desperate they may seem, hold the courage that enables us to grasp His mind and will.
