Went up north for a women's conferance that my church is putting on this weekend. Unfortunately I couldn't stay, but we did get to go last night & it was all about how much God loves me. I mean us. you. Because I know when I know that I know God loves me, I completely bask in it & I'm all loving like & you couldn't bring me down because I have God on myside. It was nice to hear it all over again, we all interpet things differently, the way God wants us to hear things. After service & the prayer team went up to pray for people..I sat & was competely overwhelmed by the way people were excepting Jesus & they were crying, broken, feeling the over whelming emotions of being filled with the Holy Spirit & the women were either holding on to the leaders as if they themselves were the Lord, or their hands were in the air in complete surrender. There is nothing like giving up control & surrendering. We weren't designed to ever be able to get completely fulfilled by anything but God. No man can complete us, beer, drugs, shopping, money, notice that nothing has ever been enough. we always need more. God is tricky isn't he. I know I've had the love I thought was going to last forever & I was never satisfied because there weren't enough hours in the day to love this person, & for a God that "Doesn't exist" how is it I have never been more happy, satisfied, friendly, pure, etc etc than when I'm in love with Jesus? It's amazing.
