our tender and pursuing Father

I can't help but notice that we are wholly unable to generate any goodness out of our natural selves. Just try and stop a habit you enjoy!! Try to do something you SHOULD without outside assistance. we cannot and i am not convinced we even want to!
So as i think of the good things in my life, to whom else can i look? it is You. Its always been You!

"We dabble.
You pour.
we tentatively call Your name
and you tenderly but persistently
woo us to do so.
Oh, Lover of my soul, can anything
good come from me
which does not have its source
in You?"

May you find great freedom in knowing Father provides in advance for those things He calls us to do - to His glory!
