How much do you want HIM? How great is your desire for HIS treasures? Seek HIS face. Desire to see HIS beauty. Yearn for a touch and a glimpse of HIS glory. The revelation of the depth of HIS love and the magnitude of HIS otherness is what sustains me.
Oh, LORD! YOU said to seek YOUR face and to chase after the prize that is found in YOUR eyes. This one thing will my heart desire- to dwell in the heart of the fire and to embrace the flame of intimate love. Initiate the chase. LORD set the pace at which this mortal heart beats and lace my praise with glory. Lost in YOUR gaze, I am amazed at the length, the depth, the width, the height of this great mystery made known to me. Love perfected and grace directed toward this swooning, lovesick bride.
Forget about your goal salary, dream car, and perfect family. The American dream is a lie! My dream has become a reality. Jesus Christ living in me. He's coming. He's coming for HIS bride. Will you be alert and ready? Or will you be stuck in your dream world- a sleeping, empty vessel. Let GOD smash your American dream. Let HIM wake you up to the reality of the Blood, the Cross, the LOVE, the Judgement to come. Yearn for more revelation and insight. Desire HIS love to consume you, incinerating any worldly debris that may pollute you. HE is jealous for HIS bride. Look into HIS eyes of love, and let all the distractions fade away. Focus on the reality of JESUS.

Blew My Mind!

Psalm 16:5
O Lord, You are the portion of my inheritance and my cup; You maintain my lot.
Psalm 23:5
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; my cup runs over.
The Lord is my cup. The Lord is infinite and eternal, therefore, my cup is infinitely and eternally large in its capacity.
The Lord makes my cup run over. He takes that infinite space and doesn't just pour a little bit into it. He fills it to overflowing!
He infinitely fills me to a point of constant overflow!
Pour it out- let it overflow, Jesus- WHOA!!!!!!

Ecclesiates 7:1-2
Ecclesiastes 7:1-2
A good name is better than precious ointment,
And the day of death than the day of one’s birth;
Better to go to the house of mourning
Than to go to the house of feasting,
For that is the end of all men;
And the living will take it to heart.
A good name- A name is an identity- a means by which a person is identified. What better name/ identity to assume than that of Jesus?! All men were created in God’s own image, but Christians have assumed the role of namesake. We have been adopted into sonship by the ransom price of Jesus’ innocent, perfect, royal blood that was spilt.
Day of death- The moment real life begins is the moment in which you let your self die. Abandon what you once were and don the identity of Christ. Forget your old dreams, aspirations, and plans- toss it all on the altar and burn it before your Savior. His life is so much sweeter and more fulfilling! You were first born into sin, but because of Jesus’ victory over death, we are able to kill our selfish identity and take on the mind of Christ. What a happy day that is!
The end of all men- Every person must face death on the earth. Would you rather be on your deathbed dwelling regretfully on your past, or excitedly envision an eternal future with the One who created, ransomed, and redeemed you? This world is not in the state that it was originally created in. the majority of the world rejects its own Creator and is doomed for eternal death and agony. Is that not reason enough to mourn? Mourn and cry out for mercy! They are blind and deaf, walking straight into an open pit of fire. Mourn, for your Beloved is being openly mocked. Mourn for the return of the Bridegroom. Mourn for the reclaiming of the earth! Do not live ignorant of the looming destruction of the wicked! Be alert and prayerful. Cry out for mercy!
