This one is heavy. I feel Gardner's struggle with assurance, control, and devotion, rwrestling to keep his eyes on God. There is an earnestness, a unrestrained pleading in it rthat portrays genuineness and honesty. But he always leads his listeners to the solution--rthe faithfulness of God who has already provided for all his needs: "All my running your rredemption retraced. At your cross held my exhausted embrace. Now I wander in your rglorious maze. Lost in grace, lost in grace." David did the very same, writing Psalms that rebb and flow with trouble and hope as he fought for solace amidst painful circumstances. rIts refreshing, and its speaks to me amidst my own failure.
