I Am Consumed


Lord, the eyes of my heart are consumed by the beauty of your character. Your matchless grace, your kindness Lord and your unfathomable love are the among the many life giving treasures I seek in your presence. Your peace, your purity and honesty renew me. Your goodness, your wise and just ways are the life path I seek to follow with passion. Lord, your love alone sustains me for you stand alone as the source of my provision. In truth, I am wholly dependent on you for all things as an infant is dependent on its mother.

Your compassion to the weak, the lonely, the forsaken and unworthy is the example of loving tenderness my heart craves to follow. For the indescribable glory and beauty of your heart is resoundingly proclaimed in the humility of your great and immeasurable majesty and power as the God to reach out to love the unlovable. Oh Lord God, there is no justice in the words of men to describe you!


You are indeed the beginning and the end of all things holy and good. You're the source and the well spring of all that men's hearts truly desire in raw need and bare honesty. There is no substance to any other thing sought to fill the unquenchable desire for you. You alone are the source of the bounty of true wealth that your spirit brings and that even unknowing hearts seek in desperation.


Lord God you are life in its purest perfection. You are the essence of all things truly desired and the substance of all things righteous, good and eternal that men could ever hope to enjoy. There is no replacement and no substitution for all that you are and all that your generosity chooses to share with the undeserving. None are worthy Lord, except by your grace.


To walk in your presence Lord, guided and held firmly by the hand of the almighty Lord God Himself is the ultimate dream of desire that any man could ever hope to imagine in the fancy of slumber. Yet, it's not a dream of desire, but the reality you offer to any who will accept in wakeful sincerity. Oh Lord God who is, your beauty is indescribable, yet I will spend the days of my eternity in endless search of its description only to bestow just honor upon your glorious heart. Lord God, you stand above all other things as the passion that consumes me!

What If...

"For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.  And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are naked and open to the eyes of Him to whom we must give account. "  Hebrews 4:12-13 (NKJ) I'm not one who appreciates the stoking of fear for the sake of it or unnecessarily. There are enough things in this life to keep people concerned and even constantly fearful if they subscribe to them. I would like though, to take a moment to encourage my brothers and sisters in Christ and any others who will take a little time to read this and give it some serious consideration because the subject has real   potential  consequences and there's still time to address any issues that we find upon reflection... If you were made aware that   sometime in the next hour  your life on earth was ...

Judging, Judgment And Judge...

"I have come as a light to shine in this dark world, so that all who put their trust in me will no longer remain in the dark. I will not judge those who hear me but don’t obey me, for I have come to save the world and not to judge it. But all who reject me and my message will be judged on the day of judgment by the truth I have spoken. I don’t speak on my own authority. The Father who sent me has commanded me what to say and how to say it. And I know his commands lead to eternal life; so I say whatever the Father tells me to say.” John 12:46-50 (NLT) A lot is said these days about "judging", but in the midst of that popular societal buzz and the assertive comments that come with that conversation, I have a question: If God has called something sin and we simply agree with what He's said,... are we judging or just repeating and declaring the truth? When He walked the earth, Jesus spoke about judging and He pointed out the danger of our judging...  “Do not judge other...

An Observance And Observing True Reality...

As Easter approaches, I begin once again considering how our God sees our observance of an occasion as I always do and also what He might truly desire of us in observance above any of our trivial, man inspired traditions . What I come away with in firm conviction is the understanding that the most trivial of my sins, the least of my crimes against God, had the power to forever damn me in His judgment of me and send me into unending torment. And that knowing this one thing in truth and as reality, is key to my correct posture before God in honor of His purpose in the event. That key being the horror of knowing that the price of my very least sin was the shedding of my Christ Jesus' blood and His horrible suffering, because the reality of this brings the deep rending of my heart in awe and gratitude and it makes possible my true joy at the relief of my sentence because of what He has done. I believe this is a part of what God would desire from us in observance of Christ's death a...
