I am wrecked for God.
He has so thoughtfully and creatively met me in a familiar place. A place with no need for defenses. A welcoming place, somewhere I don’t want to leave… because it is uniquely made for me.
It is made up of everything that is good and familiar. It consists of all the things that define me. It is a secret place that he has called me to be in with Him.
Here is where I understand Him. I hear him clearly. All the ways I have been taught by others has been laid aside. He speaks to me in a way that I understand. He’s got a great sense of humor, one that I can identify with. We have conversation just as I would choose to have conversation. It is comfortable. It doesn’t consist of any certain way that has been outlined by man. There aren’t any fabricated words that I can’t comprehend. It is simply, uniquely and colorfully created to fit my identity in Him.
He has given me a clean slate. He has erased all things that were confusing. I have been invited to newly discover who I am in Him.
“Thank you God. You are a God who knows me and wouldn’t choose to ask of me in a place that is unfamiliar. Instead, you have come to me in my familiar place and have asked me to be myself. Away with the Christian language, away with storage of biblical knowledge, away with fabrication and expectations that don’t fit me. You have given me new life and I rejoice in who you have called me to be.”
