Closer.

Another post of simplicity.

God desires You.
He will fight for you.

I am not saying this to seem cool and godly but because God has been showing me. He is continually chasing after me. He is fighting for me.

It throws me for such a loop. Why would God fight for me?!
I. don't. know. But I do know that I am more than thankful for that. I am thankful for this journey that he is so graciously taking me on. He wants all of me.


Here is my reply: I want to be closer. Click that link and you'll hear the song that I have been obsessed with. Take a listen. Let it flow through your heart and soul. Ask our God for a journey. He will grant you one. He will fight for you. He is worth it, and worth waiting for.

Love y'all.

What are you thankful for?

Simplicity.

ALL I want is to be with You.

There is beauty in saying little.

So I tell you this,

the only good thing in me is Jesus.

I am praying that you fall madly in love with Him.

Seek Him with everything you got, it is well worth it.

Selah.

First of all, can I say this: God is good.
STOP. Let that sink in.. God is good.

If you haven't already today, please close your laptop or turn off your monitor. Throw on Shane and Shane, open the Word of God and rest. I can't promise you that reading this post will change your life but I can promise you that God's Word does not return void. It will revive your soul. Psalm 19:7 Go be with Jesus. Rest in Him, Selah.

Just an FYI, the above is not a judgmental guilt trip to put upon y'alls hearts. It is a loving push over to Christ. I know that He is the best for all of us. So many times I get caught up in reading blogs, tweets, or FB statuses. I forget that the He restores my soul. Psalm 23:3.

About two years ago, (I think? I have really bad time perception.) my mom and Joyce Jones gave me this devotional that has rocked my world. Day after day. Shout out to those two lovely ladies who not only pour into me, but buy me rockin' Bible Studies. Anyways back to the bombdig devotional...

Daily Light for Every Day with Anne Graham Lotz. Click here to check it.
Originally by Jonathon Bagster of London. This is a morning and evening devotional. It is purely the Word of God. No commentary just the beautiful Word of God. At the top of the page it is the theme for that morning or night. The content on the rest of the page is a compilation of verses that go hand in hand with that theme. I am going to type out this mornings scriptures.
Remember the Word of God will revive your soul.

Christ... loved the church and gave Himself for her,... that He might sanctify and cleanse her with the washing of water by the word.
Walk in love, as Christ also has loved us and given Himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling aroma.
Having been born again, not of corruptible seed but incorruptible, through the word of God which lives and abides forever. Sanctify them by Your truth. Unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit. Your word has given me life.
The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul; the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple; the statutes of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes.
Ephesians 5:25-26; Ephesians 5:2; 1 Peter 1:23; John 17:17; John 3:5; Titus 3:5; Psalm 119:50; Psalm 19:7-8

There ya go. Let the fact that Word of God is where we find freedom. It brings knowledge and wisdom. It is a love letter from God, himself. Relish in it. Dive into it. Let it revive you!!

Love you guys.
