perfect peace :)


It is a wonderful thing to feel chosen!  



This is a verse that has just been on my heart for the last few days.



such a wonderful promise



I don't need to worry about the future - just keep my mind on Him!


this is the question that has been on my mind the last few days -- is Jesus merely useful to me or is He ultimately beautiful to me?

When I think of Jesus being useful to me it really comes down to what He can do for me and waiting for something bad to happen before I call on Him to make it better - our conversations and my prayer time becomes all about me - how He can move my world.

There is no relationship when Jesus is merely useful to me.

When Jesus is ultimately beautiful to me - things begin to change.  I enter into prayer and worship with my eyes fixed on Him - and a relationship is opened - He is included.  I want to know what is on His heart - what He is thinking, what He feeling.  I begin to get excited about the bible more - through being close to Him my heart changes and this is what causes change in my world.  Jesus in me.
Beautiful.  Jesus is beautiful.

God is always calling us deeper and further - it's not about us being able to do for for Him, but if we want to go deeper - if we fight for the relationship - that is when He can do more through us.  



That my faith would be made stronger in the presence of my savior
