“SEEK GOD’S FACE, and you will find all that you have longed for. The deepest yearnings of your heart are for intimacy with GOD. GOD knows, because HE designed you to desire HIM. Do not feel guilty about taking time to be still in GOD’S Presence. You are simply responding to the tugs of divinity within you. GOD made you in HIS image, and HE hid heaven in your heart. Your yearning for The LORD is a form of homesickness: longing for your true home in heaven. Do not be afraid to be different from other people. The path GOD has called you to travel is exquisitely right for you. The more closely you follow GOD leading, the more fully GOD can develop your gifts. To follow GOD wholeheartedly, you must relinquish your desire to please other people. However, your closeness to GOD will bless others by enabling you to shine brightly in this dark world.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young
As the deer pants for streams of water, so my soul pants for you, O God. My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When can I go and meet with God? PSALM 42 : 1 – 2
Those who look to him are radiant; their faces are never covered with shame. PSALM 34 : 5
. . . so that you may become blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a crooked and depraved generation, in which you shine like stars in the universe. PHILIPPIANS 2 : 15
Prayer: Lord help me to take time to be still each day in your presence. It is there I find true rest and refreshment for my soul. As the dear pants for steams of water, so my soul pants for you. Help me to fill myself with you and you alone. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
