The darling of Heaven crucified

Worthy is the Lamb
Seated on the throne
I crown you now with many crowns
You reign victorious
High and lifted up
Jesus Son of God
The darling of heaven crucified
Worthy is the Lamb


This words hold such beautiful weight in my life. As I sit and ponder over these words the wave of emotions that wash over we are endless.
I am so undeserving
Why me
I don't understand it
All I know is His forgives and embrace 
and the peace that encompasses it all.
The victory is won, the struggle is real, but it's done and the reality is that I can rest in the finished work of another.

This is a truth that is not understand, it is to so many a piece of information that is comforting at times but doesn't hold the weight or the freedom that it is intended to, because it is not embraced. The endless thoughts of 
I am so underserving
Why me
I don't understand it
Are actually the very same reasons they are unable to surrender and accept it.
No, it doesn't make sense.
Yes, we are undeserving
that is why we simple have to accept it
and not try to fully comprehend it.
Oh but the struggle for control.
That very same struggle going all the way back to that moment in the garden
we want to to know, we want to be in control.
How hard we find it to simple surrender to the fact that we can't,
but God did.

This is the truth that I love so much and that I terrible want other's (my kids, my youth my street leaders) to really and truly give themselves up to. 
The struggle is deep rooted, it is taught and even fostered but nothing, nothing is to deeply rooted for the Son to overcome.
