I want to be radiant again.

 

Settling for a new lease on life is not my cup of tea.

I have suffered long and hard enough that I want a makeover on my face as promised by the word of God.

 

“I sought the Lord, and he answered me; he delivered me from all my fears. Those who look to him are radiant; their faces are never covered with shame.”

Psalms 34:4-5.

 

Shame on me if I were to wear shame on the face given to me in the garden by my maker.

My well-wishers should see on me once again a radiant face.

Pain more than Fear kept my face downcast beyond my capacity to hide my misery.

Unless the restoring power of the Gospel will cover me in forgiveness …I want no life.

 

Dear Lord;

Bring me out of the slimy pit and set my feet on a rock until others might see you in me and fear you and put their trust in you… I want no life!

 

Forgive my boldness dear Lord … but you have to raise not a chicken in me but an Eagle.

Soar with me once again dear Lord.

 

Would you who are Grace and Love from before the world began not grant the answer to my prayer?

 

You delight in a childlike faith dear Lord.

Delight yourself in me once again.

One more time dear Lord…one more time.

 

At the present I can hardly keep my balance. Protect me while I learn to walk again.

 

Your “eaglet”
