when man and mountains meet

Before this faith came, we were held prisoners..., locked up until faith should be revealed. (Galatians 3:23)

Our own nature, circumstances, trials and disappointments all serve to keep us submissive and "locked up" until we see that the only way out is His way of faith.

"It is well with my soul"

The funniest thing about life is that each time I’m fully convinced that I’ve made a right decision, the moment I get off the fence to take a side, I have to begin the whole process of convincing myself again on why I choose the steps that I take. These days are a whirlwind, my twenty-second birthday came and left before I could get a sense of turning twenty-two. School rolls into its third week and the Christmas lights will be up before long and we’ll be whisked away into 2010. I still remember the days of getting frenzy over the Y2K bug in 1999 and now a decade later, here we all are, ten years older, hopefully some years wiser.
