To Know You

Music very often speaks all that is in my heart. Recently, this song by Casting Crowns is the cry of my heart

To know You is to never worry for my life
To know You is to never give into compromise
To know You is to want to tell the world about You
To know You is to hear your voice when you are calling

To know You is to catch my brother when he's falling
To know You is to feel the pain of the brokenhearted
'cause they can't live without you

More than my next breath
More than life or death
All I'm reaching for, 
I live my life to know You more

I leave it all behind
You're all that satisfies
To know You is to want to know you more

To know You is to ache for more than ordinary
To know You is to look beyond the temporary
To know You is believing that you'll be enough
'cause there's no life without you

More than my next breath
More than life or death
All I'm reaching for, 
I live my life to know You more

I leave it all behind
You're all that satisfies
To know You is to want to know you more

All this life could offer me, could not compare to You
And I count it all as lost, compared to knowing You

In her book "Breaking Free", Beth Moore writes about five benefits God intends "to be the daily experience of every child of God." (p. 23) The first benefit is to know God and believe Him . Beth Moore writes that "one of your chief purposes on this planet is to know God intimately and with reverent familiarity. That intimate relationship begins, but was never intended to end, with what we call the 'salvation experience.' So the first question to ask yourself is, Have you received Christ as your personal Savior?" "One of the most beautiful elements of salvation is its simplicity. Christ has already done all the work on the cross. Your response includes four elements: 1) Acknowledge that you are a sinner and that you cannot save yourself. 2) Acknowledge that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and only He can save you. 3) Believe that His Crucifixion was for your personal sins and that His death was on your behalf. 4) Give Him your life and ...

Philippians 2:3-4

Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves. Each of you should look not only to your own interests, but also to the interests of others. Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus . -Philippians 2:3-5 photo credit

Fuel Up with the Holy Spirit

 “But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I said to you.” John 14:26 Once we decide to get on the road with Jesus, we discover that the Bible is like a road map for our journey; helping us to live in a way that pleases God. If we spend time in the Word everyday, we will grow to be more like Jesus. A car needs gasoline in order to work. In order for you to keep going, you have to fill the tank up. Well, just like our physical bodies need food for energy, and cars need gasoline in order to go, our spiritual bodies need a kind of fuel too. This "fuel" is the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit gives us wisdom and energy for life. We know that God created us. We know that Jesus saved us. But you might wonder who the Holy Spirit is. In John 14:16-17 we see that before Jesus was going to die on the cross, He told the disciples that God would send another Helper to help them. This w...
