Diving for cover!

Sometimes I find myself in a contest with God to where He takes the boulders of my sinful actions and buries them in the deepest part of His sea of love to where they are to never be remembered anymore and then I dive below and dredge them up again.

There must be some kind of false security on my part in wanting to not totally remove these parts of myself from my memory.

I keep trying to return to "justice" with myself while He keeps insisting on "Grace" as a much more beneficial manner of approach to my state of infallibility.

I'm glad His ways are not my ways. It's a losing battle for me in the long run and I'm sure that His intentions are for me to become a "graceful loser."

Anyone interested in purchasing a used scuba-diving suit?

Boy can I relate to that. Thank God for His new-every-morning mercy!
 
I have an old battered suit in the closet and a new one right next to it. It sure is crazy to think the new one looks better than the old. Flee!

Sorry, but I don't know how to post in the non-anonymous mode. It just keeps pushing me back to the sign-up place. -Tom-
