Don’t hurredly rush after your end goal without determining in your heart to revel in the anticipation that gets you there. Anticipation is not necessary, things will happen whether you anticipate or not. But why leave the amazing gift of anticipation from our Father in Heaven, instead of getting the most out of it and appreciating the small, vulnerable, perfect moments ?

Relax and take it all in. God wants us to suck meaning out of the seconds and minutes! Yet be prepared to live at his level and not your own.

If only we could experience enough of life it would leave us unsettled. Then we would no longer look to something to take us to the “edge”, we would already be there.
If we are familiar with life, we somehow have managed to sleep through all of the good parts, like the man who watches braveheart and walks away not getting it. “Why did William Wallace die?,” they would say.

We could at least be truthful before God and admit our weakness instead of reducing the requirement. -S.K.
I found myself in the Gospels (Vangeli) and pondering belief. Christ, upon being asked what men should do, (John 6) answered, believe in He who was sent. That is the requirement, believe in Jesus. Yet, many will habitually and continually make up stories about their weak belief being strong, instead of praying about their unbelief. I am admitting mine this week. God help me overcome my unbelief. “His power is very great for those of us who believe.”

When you say something that has already been said, you find yourself on level playing ground. The only question is if you truly believe what you have said.
Half-a-world-away is now only an expression
Psalm 65.5 You answer us in amazing ways, God our Savior. People everywhere on the earth and beyond the sea trust you.
I Have seen God undeniably show up to those who have called on him in Truth.
I know I will see it again. He is faithful.
What do you, right now, want most?
If you trust another man’s holiness you will always get far less than you bargain for. Decide for yourself at once.
I keep coming back to some of the same old questions, equally, I am gaining new ones.
taking ground by faith.
