The Puritan identity. On a journey to a better country (Hebrews 11:16), going further up and further in to the depth of the riches and wisdom and knowledge of God (Romans 11:33) by laboring to delight in the law of the LORD and meditate on it day and night (Psalm 1:2) while the war and conflict relentlessly rage on until Christ comes (Romans 7:22-25) or calls me home.

Limitations: This Is By Design
Consider the work of God: who can make straight what he has made crooked? In the day of prosperity be joyful, and in the day of adversity consider: God has made the one as well as the other, so that man may not find out anything that will be after him. Ecclesiastes 7:13-14
Limitations by Trip Lee ft. Leah Smith
You know we feelin like we cant move many times So we waitin for a break through at any time So many things that we cant do, we really find That any climb can be strangled in any grind Can get tangled we get behind And in the end they find, we feelin trapped like prison time Got big vision, we're beginning tryin But ain't grinnin when we gettin to the finish line
And we all feelin like we been tryin for too long This day been racin through my mind for too long I can't be runnin in place, do i need to save face and move on?
I watched friends fall short, i've seen many cryin I watched my dad breath his last, we are really dyin If I can grasp in my past, I see many times When I was really tryin, but was limited by His design
This is the way that life will be, limitless You put limits on me By Your grace, help us see, this is Your design This is the way that life will be, infinite You made finite me By Your grace, help us see, this is the way this is the way that life will be
So many things that we wanna get our hands on So many heights we wanna reach that we planned on And we was thinkin we just missed our chance homes But our reach ain't long enough no matter what we stand on I'll never be the kind of rapper that I like to be (yea, yea) And I can see all the books that I like to read (yea, yea) And twice the speed all the folks that i'd like to reach I like to speak, but i'm limited my might is weak
Though God was pleased with the creation of man We still gotta understand the limitations of man Many of us stuck in the days of the trance Man, thinking we can do some things that we cant
You may be thinkin you a beast but believe me You still gotta sleep in the evening, Ya you still gotta eat, need heat when its freezing You peak for a season, but peep what we speakin
This is the way that life will be, limitless You put limits on me By Your grace, help us see, this is Your design This is the way that life will be, infinite You made finite me By Your grace, help us see, this is the way this is the way that life will be
I know some folks who aint poor they crusin We can work hard but if the Lord aint movin No fruit in store man before they ruin They should trust God who supports they doin We not in control of the earth He's the owner One day we get work, next day we a goner Humanity's not getting any stronger, so we shouldn't front any longer
Behold the God of wonders, He has no hunger Never does He sleep or He slumber He's never limited, no enemies can ever come up We're the victory He's got the one up, He runs us (He runs us)
So let's submit to that King who's in the skies This is something that we cant do in our pride Humble yourself under His name dude He is God All powerful until the end of time
This is the way that life will be, limitless You put limits on me By Your grace, help us see, this is Your design This is the way that life will be, infinite You made finite me By Your grace, help us see, this is the way this is the way that life will be
This is the way that life will be, limitless You put limits on me By Your grace, help us see, this is Your design This is the way that life will be, infinite You made finite me By Your grace, help us see, this is the way this is the way that life will be
