This is the day

Today has been a good day.. a day in which i have breath
A day that the Lord has made..for that i give thanks.
I am convinced I have found no greater peace, strength or hope
than that which is found in Jesus Christ.
I find myself prostrate many times with cries of anguish...
hoping to find release from the suffocation of mental torment, the
depression and mania that play games within the recesses, the depths.
Proclamation from beneath...Oh that you sovereign God, would surrender me
from the very depths of this rage, this questioning, this wailing.
Many times there has been no answer, but that does not mean the existence of God is nil..
For I have to remind myself of the many times in which His divine breath has penetrated
my being, the Promises in His word have become truth...
The Christian life must be based on our knowledge of the truth, not our feelings about the truth.

Praise God that the presence of His word is immutable,
For suppose the Word of God was not immutable..then truth would not be so..
How would the human race find peace? How could stability even be a word?
I love to think upon these things.
Let us rejoice in the gift of breath, the peace of the night
That we would be a people of a philanthropic mindset, grounded in truth..
that which is found in God's holy word.

Right on! It's good to write these thoughts down for the times when we forget them.

Here's my favorite part:
"The Christian life must be based on our knowledge of the truth, not our feelings about the truth.
Praise God that the presence of His word is immutable."
