Right now in between all of the Science and Literature i have been reading "Crazy Love" by Francis Chan . It is a really good book about how amazing God's love is for us i read this passage and i wanted to add it to my blog collection so here it goes:
O God, I have tastes thy goodness, and it has both satisfied me and made me thirsty for more. I am painfully conscious of my need for further grace. I am ashamed of my lack of desire. O God, i want to want thee; I long to be filled with longing; i thirst to be made more thirsty still. Show me thy glory, i pray thee, so that i may know Thee indeed. Begin in mercy a new work of love within me. Say to my soul, "Rise up my love, my fair one, and come away." Then give me grace to rise and follow Thee up from the lowland where i have wandered so long.
because your love is better than life i will glorify you. I will praise you as long as i live, and in your name i will lift up my hands. My soul will be satisfied as with the richest of foods; with singing lips my mouth will praise you.
As long as we are pursuing him, we are satisfied in him. It is only when we stop actively loving him that we find ourselves restless and gravitating toward other means of fulfillment.
Psalms 4:7-8
You have put more joy and rejoicing in my heart than [they know] when their wheat and new wine have yielded abundantly.In peace I will both lie down and sleep, for You, Lord, alone make me dwell in safety and confident trust.
Psalms 16:11
Now you've got my feet on the life path, all radiant from the shining of your face. Ever since you took my hand, I'm on the right way.
Psalms 28:7
The LORD is my strength and my shield;My heart trusts in Him, and I am helped;Therefore my heart exults,And with my song I shall thank Him.
I am proud to announce that Mrs.Terri and some other girls from school and i are starting a bible study on Monday nights. I am so excited about this i think we will learn not only about the word but about each other as well. I wish we could have started this group earlier in the year but at least we have a few more months. UAB will be here soon I'm going to start praying for a bible study group to join there.
