i didnt write this but i really like it and i hope you do too....
1john 2.15-17
Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For everything in the world - the cravings of sinful man, the lust of his eyes, and the boasting of what he has and does- comes not from the Father but from the world. The world and its desires will pass away but the man who does the will of God lives forever.
That is a hard verse to swallow i encourage you to examine yourself, to let that verse speak to you. you don't have to read but My response to this verse was;
I pray and hope to just be with you jesus.. I just wanna follow you where everyour goin. I don't wish to be caught up in my own little world with my plans but i wanna know God's plans .. God help us to be vessels. We want to see your kingdom over the earth. We so desire a place where there is no more pain, no more shame, no more hurt. YOU jesus reigning our hearts of and take all the hurt and pain and the added shame away. Jesus please sent the holy spririt to the church in birmingham please comfort those who are hurting, who need to be loved. God please release i corporate grace to release divine hunger and your heart your love for the lost and the broken. Jesus if I would just respond in my heart and in my actions to who you are. I ask that the holy spirit would communicate the your love to the souls of people i see or know or talk to or are see or know me. That your love would overflow. God i ask for a real passion for your name. for your son, jesus. For your return. God I don't like this world i want your heaven on this earth now.. i want your kindom to come your desires to be manifest. I want the love of the father in me. I want your word to abide in me. Jesus i want you in my heart.. i ask that you would renew my mind.. that you would strip my heart of the love of this world and i would begin to come to encounter your love for real.. that i would respond and shake this city like paul and peter. more revelation.. I wish to do your desires to know your heart. for my heart to be with yours .. that through me the unseen god would be revealed to man.. throught the holy spirit consuming me.. I ask and say that this world i live in with all this despair and pain is not all there is and there is a hope in jesus. i am so desperate for you to awaken me and my friends to your love and allow us to be confident and rest in your unfailling love.
