  1. He is holy/blameless, worthy, and beautiful, and that's why it's a fearful thing to dishonor Him in what He so selflessly suffered, in order to free and transform us in His love. To willfully walk into sin is to trample underfoot the love He so selflessly showed me. And He is too holy to be trampled upon. πŸ™

    I was there, in that place of a conscience warring, wanting to go dull, for many yearsβ€” after having seen amazing things prior spiritually. I would weep to Him that I was trying understand, but I'd let it lead me right back. I now know I wasn't allowing Him to fully renew my understanding, as a part of me hoped the sin the old me enjoyed was somehow allowable.

    Then, the Lord, in his awesome mercy and love, gave me an experience that made me aware of a dear sister who I hadn't kept in touch with, because I parted ways, and how she was watching me by the Spirit. I felt convicted and hoped it wasn't real, for that reason. I tried to ignore it, but the awareness and experience increased. I didn't know how, because it wasn't visionary, but I had a knowing she was watching me somehow, and concerned about my spiritual status. I knew she cared about my fallen state.

    The next day, without even seeking to know, the Lord sent someone to tell me she had passed a week before in a tragic accident, way too young, and already was buried. It was surreal, convicting and holy. I had to hold back from breaking down in tears. I knew He knew what an impact she had on me, and the innocence she represented to me, and He knew that would pull on my heart.

    Even then, the Lord could have scolded me about how I could have been there to contend for her raising, but instead He showed such tender mercy and confirmed it through other ways after. And it's a tender mercy that chains me to His love. We love You Lord. You are holy and wholly worthy of all of us. You really are the friend Who sticks closer than a brother πŸ™πŸ’™
