Awake, Oh Sleeper

I had a humbling opportunity to serve the church over the last week. I had no idea what God was doing until it was upon me, but am thankful for everything He did. I am constantly reminded that "it is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me."

Thank you for life, Jesus. I desperately need you. Keep me awake. I am constantly being reminded that I do not fight for victory, but from the victory you've already given me. I live because you rose and live again.


Theoden: I will not risk open war.
Aragorn: Open war is upon you, whether you would risk it or not.

from J.R.R. Tolkien, Lord of the Rings

I pray you are awake as well.
