What a beautiful song of simple truth.... .
"Heaven come and fill this place. Glory to glory, and grace to grace. Here and now let Your Kingdom come"...............
I know how I feel when my thoughts are fixed on all Jesus is, and all He has done. I also know how I feel when I let my thoughts wonder. I know it's a choice to let those thoughts take me away from the peace and joy He offers. That's why everything I am cries out for more of Him.
I don't feel bad when I am afraid, or if I get anxious over things I don't understand that God might be calling me to be a part of with Him. All I care about is that He understands me, and is right there with me. Luke 22: 42, Even Jesus cried, "Not my will but yours." While Jesus was here on earth He was fully human and understands all our emotions. Just as the Father was with Jesus, He is with us. Leading us on in everything He purposes for us to do.
I always have to look back and remember all that God has already done and brought me through. His promise is that there is more to come. So when I get that stirring in my soul, I know that God is on the move. It's my choice to join in and let His kingdom come through my life.
Isaiah 26: 3, "You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you." This truly is the key to me. I trust God, that whatever it is He is calling me to be a part of, He's there, He's all around me. Knowing this truth, my heart, mind, and soul can stay at peace in moving forward with Him. Keeping my every thought fixed on His purpose, His will, His glory. To live in this earthly body trusting God in all things. Even if I don't like it or understand it. Galatians 2: 20, "I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me."
Dear God , I love to be with You. Your presence is heaven to me. You never change. You are, and always have been faithful. I desire to experience You daily. Let Your kingdom come in my life Lord.
