update from st. louis.

i cried a lot today. the end.

enraptured.

rapture = a feeling of intense pleasure or joy,
from the Latin, raptura: 'seizing', 'carrying off'.

"being raised or lifted up out of oneself by divine power"

to be enraptured:
.......to be captured, seized, carried off by a
.....................passionate, crazy, consuming love.

passion = strong, barely controllable, intense desire.
from the Latin, pati: 'suffering'.

crazy = foolish, nonsensical, ridiculous, unimaginable.
completely unheard of, this-doesn't-make-sense-at-ALL-ness.

consume = completely devour, destroy, overwhelm.
from the Latin, consumere:
con- 'altogether' + sumere 'take up' = to take the whole self.


to be enraptured,
.......to be captivated ("made captive") by such a love,
...............a desire, a hunger, a thirst for You that just
......................moves me to action, compels me to move.






...how can i NOT sing to You?

...

if God disappeared from my life RIGHT NOW...

...would my life look any different?




what a sobering thought.

isn't it weird that

you tend to NOT do things you should/are supposed to do when you have the time and ability to do so? call it procrastination and say "DUH" or whatever, but i really gotta whip into shape.

i'm not even spending that much time with God these days, even though i'm not doing much anyway.

and now that i DO have work to do, i end up saying,
"i'll do it later."




why do i give my God my leftovers?

blessings

"No eye has seen,
......no ear has heard,
..no mind has conceived
......what God has prepared
..............for those who love him."




...but God has revealed it to us by his Spirit.

[1 Corinthians 2:9-10]

:DDD

i have Reason to celebrate. :D

I WANT ONE. THE END.

The Year of the LORD's Favor

The Spirit of the Sovereign LORD is on me,
because the LORD has anointed me
to preach the good news to the poor.
He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted,
to proclaim freedom for the captives
and release from darkness for the prisoners,
to proclaim the year of the LORD's favor
and the day of vengeance of our God,
to comfort all who mourn,
and provide for those who grieve in Zion -
to bestow on them
a crown of beauty
instead of ashes,
the oil of gladness
instead of mourning,
and a garment of praise
instead a spirit of despair.

They will be called oaks of righteousness,
a planting of the LORD
for the display of his splendor.

Instead of their shame
my people will receive
a double portion,
and instead of disgrace
they will rejoice in their inheritance;
and so they will inherit
a double portion in their land,
and everlasting joy will be theirs.

[Isaiah 61:1-3, 7]

The Spirit of the Sovereign LORD is on me.
This is the year of the LORD's favor.
