Sharing the Journey

Turnaround      Today,  I finished reading a book I’ve had sitting on my shelf for more years than I can recall. I’ve begun reading it many times but never saw it through. Today, I did and the end was where my breakthrough was hiding.          The book is titled “ Dry Bones Dancing,Resurrecting Your Spiritual Passion ” by Dr. Tony Evans. The book begins with a look at Ezekiel 37 and the story of the valley of dry bones. It was enlightening and informative and gave me insight into a story I had been hearing all my life. But that’s not why this book is the subject of my writing tonight.          At the end of the last chapter, when our bones have come together and the Holy Spirit has breathed new life into us, Dr. Evans tells us how to “stay hydrated.” It’s great to get dry bones dancing again, but it’s better to not dry out in the first place.       ...

  More Than a Savior More than just a Savior He’s my Lord and my best friend The Son of God and Mary’s baby He’s the beginning and the end   He surrendered His life so that I might live He was beaten so that I could be whole He rose again and was seen by men His story is repeatedly told I once used Him to escape Hell’s fire He was my savior and nothing else But then I reached the end of me And realized I couldn’t save myself   Finally, I was ready for more Our relationship began to slowly progress Still, I withheld so much from Him But He wanted all of me and nothing less   I was still slow to make Him my Lord To truly give to Him my all But once again, I couldn’t do life alone My Savior I had to call   True to His faithfulness He heard and answered my cry Finally, He’s much more than a Savior to me I dare you to give Him a try.
