God's Book (Psalm 139)

My friend,

The days of your life were written in God's Book long before you were ever formed in your mother's womb.  Your story is one of eternal hope.  Your life tells of God's perfect redemption in the midst of a world that has been temporarily subjected to futility and brokenness.  His loving thoughts toward you are greater in number than the grains of sand on the seashore.  Right now, as you receive His love and recognize that your days are written in His book, He is revealing how every experience, circumstance, trial, suffering, victory, and blessing contribute to this beautiful story of love and redemption.  

The Living God has been pursuing you all your life.  There is nowhere that you can run to hide from His Presence.  There is no depth to which you can sink that will carry you beyond the reach of His strong arm.  There is no hour of night dark enough to conceal you from His loving gaze. 

Don't allow temporary pain to keep you from experiencing eternal joy and peace.  

Look away... 
Look away from your pain.
Look away from your brokenness.
Look away from your current circumstances.

Look to Jesus who is the "author and finisher of your faith."  The good news is that the Lord who gave His life for you, is the same One who has written your story in His Book.  He is ever faithful to finish that which He began.  

Be assured, the end of your story is a good one! 

In passionate pursuit,
Chad
