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.
