intentions

1-25-2015

Ephesians 2:10 NIV
10 For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.

we are called to do deeds which reflect our relationship and power through Christ Jesus and it is this that will truly show others who You are and what it means to be a disciple of the one true king.

i have so many thoughts going on.  so so many thoughts.

primarily, i am seeing that even if i have certain intentions, it is possible that others would interact with me in a way such that my own intentions and works are misconstrued where their purpose is concerned.  like, seriously.  my sexuality was questioned--not in a pressuring kind of antagonistic way, to be sure.  but it was also commented that i might have clarifying work to do.  this honestly has been driving me INSANE.  and more than anything, it lets me know that i must be more responsible for not only my own words and actions, but for the gestures of others which might not be quite so subtle and will certainly reflect on who i am.

i am a creation of God and in preparation of the Lord's advancement, clearly there is greater vigilance required of me, if i am going to complete this objective in loving as you love without allowing for that to somehow backfire and smother the truth.
