I WAS JUST THINKING...

HOW LONG HAS IT BEEN?

I heard the most beautiful thing today at the House of Prayer. A recent convert prayed and my heart just melted. The way that she described her love for the Lord, and the way she told him how much she loved Him, really made me jealous( in a good way of course). She kept saying how wonderful He was, she told Him,” From your feet to your head, you are wonderful!” I got a kick out of this. Every religious bone in my body kept thinking,” It’s from head to toe.” Her sincerity pierced my heart and caused me to bow down in reverence and awe.

I pray that we will come back to our first love. That we would come back to the place of being overwhelmed and grateful for who He is. Sometimes we can get caught up in doing this and doing that, but I want to encourage you to pause and think/ponder about when He first called you and He first came to you. Begin to thank Him, worship Him and adore Him. Allow Him to come NOW and fill the room. Allow His embrace to hold you close. Go ahead, breathe Him in… rest your heard on His chest. He is a good God, a safe Savior; He is your comfort, your joy, your everything!


Prayer: JESUS I COME BACK TO YOUR EMBRACE, I COME BACK TO YOUR LOVE. HELP ME TO KNOW HOW DEEP, HOW WIDE, HOW LONG AND HOW HIGH IS YOUR LOVE FOR ME.
AMEN
