A Benediction
A benediction
My brothers and sisters
When you are confronted with your own inadequacy, may you be reminded that Christ is enough.
When you are confronted with your own weakness, may you find strength in Christ.
When you are confronted with your past and all the ways in which you are not good enough, may you be confronted with your present and your future and all of the ways in which Christ is good enough.
When you are confronted with despair, may you have the hope of Christ.
May you truly come to see that, in Christ, you ARE a new creation.



Jamie! Hi … so good to *see* you again. This is a beautiful benediction. I love it. I hope all is well with you. Love to you …
Sonja–
Thanks! I feel guilty about my oh so neglected blog. School is taking up so much time, but I am hesitant to take down my blog, in case I want to post these random thoughts…
How ARE you?
J
beautiful and good to see you posting
Hey,…I been checkin’ this blog since the day I learned of it’s existence…..you are not posting anything new….I think bloggers such as myself deserve a little bit better from you…..J….(and I know who you are, BTW.) I came across this through a mutual friend…..write somethin’….geez, louise….I have three blogs that I check and this is one of them,….ya know,…I’m just gettin’ tired of checkin’ and checkin’ and checkin’…. again and again and again….do you mean to tell me that the buisness of life has taken up so much of your time that you don’t even check this thing? Am I talkin’ to a wall or somethin’?…..are you THAT lax that you don’t even read what people comment about you? What has happened to you, J?….you’re not the same J that I remember….if that’s your real name!
So There!
Respond please…..if you know what’s good for ya….just let the world know that you are still there…..so we can, at the veryleast, hope to expect somethin’ from you by,….oh,…I dunno…. 2012?….
Sheesh!
