A good friend and hero of mine named Bruce says, "I am sobered by the depth of my depravity, and I am encouraged by the depth of my redemption." I agree. The reality that God is not done with me, that He has not only saved me but is redeeming me for greater purposes, is a joy beyond words.
Last week I downloaded an album I've wanted for awhile. It's called Beautiful Things by Gungor. These are the words to the title song, which capture this idea pretty well:
All this pain
I wonder if I'll ever
Find my way
I wonder if my life
could really change
at all
All this earth
Could all that is lost
ever be found
Could a garden come up
from this ground
at all?
You make beautiful things
You make beautiful things out of the dust
You make beautiful things
You make beautiful things out of us
All around
Hope is springing up
From this old ground
Out of chaos
life is being found
In me
You make beautiful things
You make beautiful things out of the dust
You make beautiful things
You make beautiful things out of us
You make me new
You are making me new
You make me new
You are making me new
