"So busy trying to do everything, that you miss everything" - Mr. Miller
Oh, the story of my life. But I pray that I can quite my heart in the presence of the King.
The Food Fast was phenomenal! The Lord really moved. I was super exicted to co-lead the midnight prayer meeting with Dave Fons. Things went really well! I was also WAY beyond exicted to have my Kimmi there, leading worship! About 60 people showed up at first which was totally unexpected and as people slowly began to leave I was freaking out; what am I doing wrong?? But the Lord, and Kim, were like...give to the Lord. I'm not doing anything, its completely of the Lord. I dont have to worry. The only thing I had to do was be open and willing for the Lord to use me. And he did. And I love Him.
But folks, the Lord really put this, and a few other things on my heart lately. One, that we don't need to worry. That we dont, and shouldnt freak out about how we're gonna evangelize or do this and say that. No. Be open and willing. For there is only One Savior. And He is the only one with the power and ability to save. We do not save anyone. The Lord may use us, as He chooses and as we allow, but it is all His grace and His sacrifice. But lay everything at the foot of the cross and let Him take it. Be free, and light.
"For my yolk is easy and my burden light."
Another thing that has been way cool in my life is just the desire to KNOW the Lord. And the desire of that desire. I'm always praying, Father I want to know you. But lately I've been praying for the desire to have that passion, ya know? Like..just to revel being in His presence. And Ive been goin to daily communion and the first one was like...ahhh Im hungry! But I kept prayin that prayer and now its just like... Jesus!! Be in me. Come visit me. I want to KNOW you. Gahh! Brothers and sisters I want to be so filled with passion for him and his love and love for others. I want it to hurt. I want it to consume me. But spend more time with Him and then you will continually WANT to spend more time with Him.
Wow. I have to go. Bed TIME! But I love rambling and I hope you at least semi-appreciate it.
God Hold you
