July 28 FB post (Scott)

Lord God, as a man I long to be understood, I long to be what you want me to be. As I read and study I am understanding more and more that only you can fill that void, only you completely understand me and what you have allowed me to experience and only your grace and mercy is sufficient for me. While you want me to strive to live for you, it needs to be balanced with the fact that I need to be surrendered to your mercy, grace and power working through me rather than churning so hard to receive these gifts. I love you Lord and thank you that you are a forgiving and merciful God.
