His Authority

I know i don't realize enough how much He has authority. I've been anxious about things in life lately. It's good in that it forces me to work hard to constantly be in His presence and allow Him to show Himself and His peace to me. I love Him. I love that there is peace beyond understanding, I love that He is faithful and consistent. I love that it is possible to be content in all circumstances. I love that He blesses us with times when we have plenty and times when we have nothing, and we can learn a different facet of Who He is in each of those situations. I love that My God is a passionate God who pursues me wholeheartedly. Nothing God does is half-hearted. When I see myself with "sober judgment" or, as I really am, I see how perfect He is, and I fall more for Him. He has captured my heart. He has won me over. This is a romance. It's not some lethargic religion. I only grasp Truth half of the time. I allow Satan to lie way too much. This is a fight and I know that I am called to "demolish arguments and EVERY pretention that sets itself up against the knowledge of God.." (2 Cor. 10). I love being humbled by Him and and being FORCED to fully depend on Him. We are stubborn by nature and often, the only way we will rely on Him is through running our of options or coming to an end of ourselves. - Lord, give me singleness of heart and action. I am Yours alone.
