My time with God

What a beautiful morning it is! The sun is shining, right in my eyes, as I am facing an East window when I am in the office. I have music cranking in the living room on our surround system out there. Great praise and worship music. I have met with the Lord. I am reading the Psalms, but this time as I go through them I am studying them, writing them out and journaling my thoughts and what God teaches me. Taking this desire to "learn" them has radically changed my mornings, I cannot go past one verse to the next without pausing and pondering and seeing new things that God is showing me. This is so rich, I love me time with Him. I then went to James to study for the youth Bible study on Wed. night. I will teach this week and then I have men teaching for the next three weeks including a young adult who is training to be a leader. James was good, chapter 4, talking about asking properly for things, and how loving the world is enmity with God. The word enmity in the Greek means hatred, to love the world is to hate God. Strong language from a God who is a jealous God, FOR US! His love is so strong and He is passionate about our relationship with Him. I was so blessed from His Word this morning. He woos my heart with these words and I find myself confessing sin, adoring Him, and desiring Him more that ever. He is the Lover of my soul. |
