He can do all things. All things are possible though Him. He can change people's lives. No man on his own can dramaitcally change his life for good. He can practice will which will lead to change to some degree, but it is only God that can change the heart of a man. Each of us has a fingerprint. A stamp of our originality given to us by the Creator. We are marked all over with the thoughtfulness and intentionality of His will for us to exist. His own heart poured out . We are the finishing touch of His creation.

We grow. We mature. Shaped by environment and knowledge. We see from every growing inch. The world in a different way. And God sees it all. We come in this world with hands clasp tight and we work hard all our days. Toiling, relating, laughing, hurting, worrying, singing, and all for one purpose. To pry our hands open toward God. The Only One. Who in his loving kindness can fill us. Who can pour life changing Truth into our Holy handcrafted shells and bring alive the fruit of His Spirit that we are worthless without.

"To God be the glory, great things he hath done!
So loved he the world that he gave us his Son,
who yielded his life an atonement for sin,
and opened the life-gate that all may go in.

Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, 
let the earth hear his voice!  
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, 
let the people rejoice!
O come to the Father thru Jesus the Son, 
and give him the glory, great things he hath done!

O perfect redemption, the purchase of blood, 
to every believer the promise of God; 
the vilest offender who truly believes, 
that moment from Jesus a pardon receives.

Great things he hath taught us, great things he hath done, 
and great our rejoicing thru Jesus the Son; 
but purer, and higher, and greater will be 
our wonder, our transport, when Jesus we see."
