This season of my life has been very tough as I have been put into positions that have exposed me to very graphic and painful realities of sin. The more that I experience this weightiness, this realization of the seriousness of sin, the more sensitive I become to it. I feel like an open wound that, when touched, has a magnified sense of feeling. I am absolutely ok with all of this as it requires of me that I draw near to God, I find joy in the fact that in spite of all of the suffering in the world Jesus is sovereign and good.
What I need prayer for is the ability to communicate this to others, I really want to be able to humbly share this in a way that draws others to the centrality of Jesus' death and resurrection. I want to be able to effectively communicate that in the midst of our greatest sorrow, our greatest need for Jesus is authenticated.
