How strange, yet how wonderful this life You have brought me into. In the middle of confusion and disarray there is a peace, a contentment that I can not fully explain. I feel confident and so sure of You as life spins out of control. I am so very grateful that You are in control and have afforded me the faith to rest in Your arms as this fallen world crumble around me. By Your hand and Your design this faith comes alive, while I can see no chance of life maintaining it's present coarse.
I have been struggling to resurrect a dead marriage, to lead my wife and family by Your example, only to discovery that I can't. I have been relying on my own strength and my own will to re-direct this life You have brought me into. I couldn't revive my own life, I don't know why I would think that I could revive my family life. I was dead, had no life in me, had never lived at all, yet You have taken this rotting corpse and breathed new life into it. I should know better.
I'm turning to you. I'm way in over my head. Every day I should realize more than the day before my need for You, my Savior. Take this broken, dead marriage and make it what You you will, by Your Will. I've trusted you, I'm trusting you. You are the only One.
Teach me to pray, to follow Your lead, to rest in Your arms, to do Your Will. Lord, I'm weak, and wounded, and defiled my sin. You are my only hope. Thank You for all You have given me so far, if there is no more I am already the luckiest man that every walk this earth.
