I write all that is below because I feel I should share a glimpse, and that is all it is, of what I have come home from. I share it with you not to make you jealous, but to create within you a longing for the things of God. We are too content. Thats what was revealed to me this morning at church, I called people to hunger, thirst, longing, to want to chase after Him, to see His words bear fruit. Read what God has said He will do, read what Jesus said about Himself and his kingdom and our authority, read it and then declare it. We are living with the bar set too low, we are far too satisfied and content with where we are and the tiny things we are asking for. How big is your God? I ask again, how big is your God? Sit under His waterfall, ask for Him to fill you so that you might be brimming, that you might be poured out to everyone you come into contact with. Stop being comfortable and satisfied. Divine discontent. I dare you to pray for it ;)

A observation posted by a beautiful friend of mine...

"Spiritual maturity is not measured in how much we do, but by the heart's response to mistreatment."

ouch.

part of me wants to write reams of essays on that and unpack it. the other part wants to not touch it, not at all.

the latter has won.

Matthew 13:20-21

"The rocky soil represents those who hear the message and receive it with joy. But like young plants in such soil, their roots don't go very deep . At first they get along fine, but they wilt as soon as they have problems or are persecuted because they believe the word."
