I Can Feel Your Whisper

...A great and powerful wind tore the mountains apart and shattered the rocks before the LORD, but the LORD was not in the wind. After the wind there was an earthquake, but the LORD was not in the earthquake. After the earthquake came a fire, but the LORD was not in the fire. And after the fire came a gentle whisper. When Elijah heard it, he pulled his cloak over his face and went out and stood at the mouth of the cave.

Notes That totally awesome God-moment when —

jspark3000:

You’re presented with temptation, and you turn around and do something better. What a sweet taste of freedom on the other side.

In your face, satan. Yes, I lower-cased you.

Notes
"However, I consider my life worth nothing to me,
if only I may finish the race and complete the task
the Lord Jesus has given me —
the task of testifying to the gospel of God’s grace."

Acts 20:24 (via jspark3000)
Surrounded by this verse this weekend!

"Community is not some sentimental ideal place or time where everybody lives together, loves each other, and always gets along. That’s never going to happen. Rather, in living together we come to realize that community doesn’t require or offer total emotional harmony. It offers us the context where we try to love one another and receive the love and care of others."

Henri Nouwen, Spiritual Direction.
Text So much to do to set my heart right

Oh,
it’s taking so long I could be wrong,
I could be ready
Oh,
but if I take my heart’s advice
I should assume it’s still unsteady.

I’m in repair, I’m not together but I’m getting there.

This was my 7k mark song.

It now has SO much meaning to me.

Another encounter to treasure in my heart.
Text My psalm from P2C’s Day of Prayer

Blessed are You O Lord,
You are the life that is truly life.
You alone draw my soul into the depths,
the rich and vibrant invitation
to live deeply in the Kingdom of God.

You know me,
You hear me,
You are the God who sees me.
The joys and blessings that I receive
Point my heart to You.

So, I look to You
in praise,
in wonder,
in love.

My heart rests content;
My soul safe.

Surround me O Lord with You
And reflections of You.
Use me to glorify You.

May I walk with You
In steadfast faith
Trusting, enjoying
Experiencing and knowing You,
Jesus,
Lord and Friend.

Notes I just spent

Over an hour
Reliving my Asia experience
That I had archived
Deep into the stores of my heart.

I am
Worlds apart.

Notes
"Remember He is the artist and you are only the picture. You can’t see it. So quietly submit to be painted — i.e. keep fulfilling all the obvious duties of your station (you really know quite well what they are!), asking forgiveness for each failure and then leaving it alone. You are in the right way. Walk — don’t keep looking at it."

C.S. Lewis (via jspark3000)

Notes The interesting thing is

There are some Christians in my life that want to be offensive to many people, perhaps bc they expect to be offensive for the “sake of Christ”

And there are some Christians in my life who will go to great lengths as to not offend anyone, perhaps as to not seem judgmental or critical of others.

Then there is Christ - the one who perfectly integrated:
Courage and Gentleness
Firmness and Love
Justice and Mercy
Truth and Grace.

…so much to learn from His example.
And so continues this apprenticeship that I have begun…

Notes
"My mind is a bucket without a bottom,
with no spiritual understanding,
no desire for the Lord’s Day,
ever learning but never reaching the truth,
always at the gospel-well but never holding water.
…
Give me a broken heart that yet carries home the water of grace."

Prayer from “The Valley of Vision”

**Listening to: “Facedown” by Matt Redman
