June 7th, 2008...

I feel like I'm at a loss for words;
& yet I know they're about to start flowing.
My spirit is restless, stirring with an amazing curiousity, moved by an intense hunger.
I yearn to be nearer to God's heart, to dive deeper into His prescence.
I want to be utterly obedient, insanely humble, and always in the center of His will.
There's a fire welling from deep within my soul, an intense burning for God.
I never want to ignore His works, but instead I want to daily dwell in His prescence.
But there are things of this world that are fighting for my attention;
there are worldly matters which attempt to strain me of my energy,
to draw me away from my Father and farther into the darkness that we live in.
But instead I stand defiant, straining to walk in the light that is God.
And I walk not by my own strength or understanding,
but am rather fortified by my Savior that is Jesus Christ.
He guides me, He keeps me, and forever and always I thank Him.
My life is a living testimony to His works, my daily actions a continual praise unto His name.
