Colossians 4:3-4 And pray for us, too, that God may open a door for our message, so that we may proclaim the mystery of Christ, for which I am in chains. Pray that I may proclaim it clear, as I should.
This is Paul's statement and yet I am thinking the exact same thing. I have been running the lyrics of a praise song in my head too. "As we enter into this mystery, overwhelmed by the power of your grace. Lead us on great Herald of our victory, to our home where we stand face to face." This verse coupled with these lyrics are truly where I am today. This journey is a mystery. The peace we feel. The joy in Christ. The waiting. The sadness of what may be. The hope of a miracle. The strength for today. The glory we see. The grace bestowed. I don't know that I can adequately explain how all of this can be or how it feels. I do know who it's from and who it's through. Jesus Christ. He is alive and living in me and in the lives of my family. God pours into us at the perfect time in the perfect amount when we need it. My only hope is that we, as a family, are able to get His message to you and that you all may have what we have been given. May God give us understanding and may the Spirit be in our conversations as we share the power, grace and glory that comes through Christ Jesus our Lord and Savior as we travel this journey.
