God's dizzying depth

The more I find out, the less I know. Meaning: The more I find out about my Father and His love, the more I find out how much I didn't know.

The depth of God goes deeper than I've ever been. Diving into his lakes more refreshing than any comparison I could write about. It is so frustrating not being able to express these heavenly feelings.

I have been thinking about God more and more lately. Over the years, I can see that. I always grew up knowing who God was. Looking back, I wish I had spent more time with Him. There isn't ever a time I wish I'd spent less time with Him. But I don't dwell on what I could have done better. That's senseless. You CANNOT change or do better something in your past. You CANNOT change or do better something in your future. We are present beings. We live in the now, not in the then.

The bible talks about that. I don't dwell on my past. I don't worry about my future. Yeah, my life is that good. I am focused on today. Everyday. I gave Christ my worries. He gave me my focus. I can focus on the plans the Lord has for me. I can meditate on the promises He's given me. I am not afraid of the terror of the day.

Discovering the word of God, meditating on it, DOING it is such a liberation. I love the simplicity of the message. LOVE abounds, Jesus is King, The Gospel of peace, we are justified...I could go on and on, and I could preach hours on each one of these.

I have a strong desire to teach God's children. To see them grow up in the word, and not get beat down in the world. I have a strong desire to transition from milk to meat. I want to experience the most of God possible. I want to continually be in prayer for the saints, to speak in tongues on a daily basis. These desires inside of me can be overwhelming.

And here's the kicker: I'm not a super spiritualist. I pray in tongues for my friends every day. I CANNOT know what they're feeling, what they're going through, what obstacles they're facing. I cannot help them all out of their situations. But God is a presence always there for us. Always by our side.

I usually don't blog about what's gone on in my life. I'm not much of a detailed person, especially concerning my life. But I notice that changes when I'm talking about the Word of God.

I can be so expressive. So detailed. When I want to be...

I guess I don't want to be right now, haha. I'm tired so I will cut this blog short. I can dwell upon the goodness of God all day. Just that one thought. God, you are good to me. :)

Glory to God


I love the facts of my LORD. He loves me, is responsible for me, cares for me, nourishes me (my breath of life), satisfies me, seduces me, desires me...My LORD is amazing. My LORD is spectacular.

And I can't find the words to describe Him. It is complete torture not being able to COMPREHEND let alone write into words that which is my God. Glory is all His, Dominion is all His. Death has been destroyed. Life has been instilled in me. My God is an awesome God.

And I serve Him. I can drink His word new every day. I can sit at His feet, stunned in His presence. He's my help in time of need.

My words do not return unto me void. But they go forth and prosper. God is blessed. I am blessed. God and I are like two peas in a pod. Children by Jesus Christ, amen! We have redemption through His blood. The forgiveness of sins. All according to HIS riches. I have an inheritance. Wow! What an inheritance of GRACE. Of joy, of peace, of a sound mind, of deliverance from evil, of holiness, withouth blame, before Christ in LOVE.

Christ is my Peace. Christ is my cornerstone. Christ is my LIFE. You cannot take my LIFE. It is not yours. You cannot harm my LIFE. He is the Majesty on high. His throne is forever. My LIFE is forever.

Haven't you heard any of this before? God as my witness, it's true.

My point is Hebrews 5:5- So also Christ glorified NOT himself to be made a high priest. But He glorified Him who said, "You are my son. Today have I begotten you.

Don't give glory to your status, or your job, or your friends, or your income, or your job. GIVE GLORY TO GOD. You are His son.
