Radical Desperation

Where do I end and where does God begin?

God begins when I reach the point of complete surrender: when I look at my life and all I see is all my weakness and failure. I have such a clear view of weaknesses that I weep over what keeps me from growing stronger in faith.

I know God is doing something major in me when I can't continue on where I am. I cry out to God in my deperation and brokenness. All  of me is pleading with God to be my strength in the midst of what makes me weak and causes me to fail in sight of Him: who is completely holy and righteous.

I have reached a critical level in my life: I am not afraid to say that I am desperate for Him.

Where can I go?
Where do I hide when life is overwhelming, when my struggles and temptations overwhelm me?

I have no where to go and no place to hide. I just stopped and cried out to God: for Him to overwhelm my brokenness and weakness with all of His strength.

I want to say I'm radically desperate.

Radical desperation is what I need.

<3 in Him,
