Sanctified by His Word

What a Savior!

I am feeling so speechless as I learn more about what actually happened when Jesus became human, lived the perfected life, died in our place, became sin, and continues to serve today.

Why? How am I worthy? I find it interesting that it isn't until I look at how amazing Jesus is that I see how wretched I am. I know when God looks at me He sees Jesus but - do I love Him at all? How is it that the smallest of things are so hard for me to give up? I need to catch a glimpse of God that I would run and never turn back. Never look to the right or the left.

God, Father, Abba, continue to show me Who You are. Help me to relish your attributes. Help me to hold on with abandoment to the fact that growing in wisdom and knowledge of You is . . . is everything. For the more I know You, the more I love You, and the more I love You, the more serving You is the least I can do, it is a joy and a delight - it is my duty and my heart's desire.

Jesus, please continue to "Come My Way" (Skillet) I want to touch the hem of your garment - and then I want to envolpe You in a huge bear hug and never let You go.

I can't wait to see Your face.
To hear Your laugh.
Smell Your sent.
Feel your skin, beard and hair.

I'm sorry for not loving You. I'm sorry for anything that I've allowed to come between us. May I continually bow my head along with You in submission to the Father. O God continue to teach me about You through the Word and Your Son! O Spirit, please continue to plant the word in my heart and bring it to light in the midst of life's circumstances: when I can use God or myself&Satan. O Jesus live in me and give me the strength to choose in that moment and for my whole life long - You.

Just read Romans and Eph. 1-3. after listening to: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S_LOCT-Ehu4

I am so overwhelmed that God loves me and wants me to be His family member - He wants me in His household!

And what can be said of the fact that I will be a co-heir with Christ. Why? O what have I done that I would be worthy? Absolutely nothing, but in their love, mercy, and grace I am a recipiant of it all.

"God is making brothers and sisters for His Son." - Paul Washer.

It's time for bed but I wanted to get this out somehow. <3
