5 Times The Redeemer

He is the redeemer of my mind. Regardless of emotions on the worst days, I know I answer to the Highest Power. In the middle of confusion, he gives hurt-filled experiences a higher purpose. He leads me to wise people as guides, and teaches me how to think. Despite great fears, he embraces me in his rest. 
He is the redeemer of my heart. As with most, my heart has been broken many times. When it seems incapable of surviving one more loss, he, somehow, lifts me up to try again. His love is indestructible. 

He is the redeemer of my time. Years pass, and I wonder if my time here has been useful. It is too easy to recall mistakes and downright harmful choices. I know he has the grace to use even my faults for his glory. My time is not done, either. 

He is the redeemer of my soul. There is no greater darkness than that of a lost soul. I know, I used to have one. Jesus stands as my Savior and Advocate, and restores me when I repent of sin.  Earthly human life is temporary and not the only one we get. One day, in His time, he and I will be in heaven together.  My soul is forever his.
