"If we regularly beheld the glory of Christ our Christian walk with God would become more sweet and pleasant, our spiritual light and strength would grow daily stronger and our lives would more gloriously represent the glory of Christ. Death would be most welcome to us."
John Owen, The Glory of Christ
happy and heavy
steady
wobbling
steady
bending
breaking levees
crashing waves of Sovereign grace
foam is covering my face
drowning in the salt and spray
undertow that pulls
me
to
the
bottom
while, happy and heavy
I weather the fray
drowning under swells
laughing on the way
where,
happy and heavy
I’m fettered
to Rock
steady
wobbling
steady
happy and heavy
I’m fettered to stay
