Whatever it is that is substantial about my love for You comes from the fact that You loved me first. You teach me on several tracks, two or three tracks at once, one seeming sometimes to have little to do with the other. There's an eternity of difference, You say, between being in dependence on and being independent of, though they sound almost the same. Your mind is the most realistic mind, the most practical mind of all while still being the most lofty.

  My wrinkles could be smoothed and ironed out, perhaps,  but it always took Your precious blood to cleanse spots and stains. Counterfeit covenant says, "What's yours is mine" but true blood covenant like Yours says "What's mine is yours!"  Again,  an eternity of difference exists between the two.  May my tongue out from behind it's bars of teeth in the custody of Your Holy Spirit today.  After almost 50 years I'm still learning to pronounce Your name right. From there the sky's the limit!
