What is man, that You are mindful of him?
Ps 8:4

Fragile. Handle with care. That's what the label would be on our boxes if we could be sold off the shelf at wal-mart, or ordered online off amazon.

The whole of humanity is held together on threads. Whole organizations, nations, corporations, families, and even churches, seem built on evanescence. Vapor- that's what the bible describes our kind. Here now, gone next.

Its a miracle the work of our hands exist- the REAL work; the eternal kind, not the kind you work for for the world. It does so, only because of grace, and the goodness of God. Whole churches and christian ministries are held together with seemingly flimsy, flippant collective of "volunteer" workers. The next moment, should they withdraw their support, it'll just vanish without a trace. Simply amazing if you think about it. It really is grace and mercy that the so-called "ministries" we serve in actually grow, multiply and prosper. Relationships established and trust built, all simply on the basis of Faith, Hope and Love. Without the truth and substance therein, and without the Holy Spirit's reality and power, it all falls flat. Splat.

So, Lord, hold us closer to you. Let me stand on your promises, but should i falter, to fall on your grace.

Oh Lord, our God, how excellent your Name is.
ps 8:1
