It's good to have even 10 minutes

I am pressing on.

I refuse to let a good thing become twisted into a very bad thing.

I am not running away.

Alive Again

I woke up in darkness
Surrounded by silence
Oh where, oh where have I gone?
I woke to reality Losing its grip on me

Oh where, where have I gone?
'Cause I can see the light
Before I see the sunrise
You called and You shouted

Broke through my deafness
Now I'm breathing in and breathing out
I'm alive again
You shattered my darkness

Washed away my blindness
Now I'm breathing in and breathing out
I'm alive again
Late have I loved You
You waited for me, I searched for You

What took me so long?
I was looking outside
As if Love would ever want to hide
I'm finding I was wrong

'Cause I feel the wind
Before it hits my skin
'Cause I want You,
Yes I want You I need You, and I'll do

Whatever I have to just to get through
'Cause I love You,
Yeah I love You

I guess normal people find a way to go through life without breaking
as many friendships as I have.

There is no Rock like our God

I don't want God as much as I should, but I want to want Him more. I want Him as my everything... really my everything. I want to be all-in, to have no reservations. The more my heart is revealed to me, the more frustrated I get... but the more God transforms my spirit, the less those frustrations act as an effective obstacle. Because I have God, I have hope... when I can see none.

And my heart

burns

for You!

I need more of the Word in my life... the Word that sustains me. When I have no Word, I starve.

- The laborer's appetite works for him; his hunger drives him on. (Proverbs 16:26)

- O LORD, by your hand save me from such men, from men of this world whose reward is in this life. You still the hunger of those you cherish; their sons have plenty, and they store up wealth for their children. (Psalm 17:14)

I am so hungry. I am so starved. My spirit cries and yearns from within me: for holiness, for purity, for sustenance, for vision, for hope, for power, for renewal, for resurrection, for recreation, for the fulfillment of all things. Come, Lord Jesus, come. There is no power that comes anywhere near the fearsome sovereignty of the LORD GOD ALMIGHTY... it's not even close. Satan and all his dark angels cannot come anywhere close to singeing even the hem of His robe, or touching the least of His precious ones without His tacit approval. I shall have no fear, because I trust in the goodness and the judgment of my God.

For Thou O LORD

Art High

Above all the earth

Thou art exalted

Far above

All gods.

An end to madness. An end to greed. A new beginning for all good things, green and flourishing. The LORD has decreed it, I shall declare it. May I declare it with my life as well as my words. An end to hypocrisy and flirtations with the impotent darkness. Fire of God, overwhelm us.

Deliverance

Another day, another death or death of a child. How do I navigate this world of personal tragedy without having it overwhelm me? I really need to get back into the Word. Lord help me.

Am I weak for being glad that Ramadan is almost over?

Present

The world is about to enter a very, very dangerous season. Must remember to be in prayer. Safety is not the absence of danger but the presence of God.

God help me; sometimes, if I'm honest, I realize I'm afraid of death and I need to not be.

Hold my peace

Lord, keep me still. I'm bleeding all over the floor.

Seriously

I am a basket case.

Awakening

Lord, I am craving revival. Call it forth. Let Your glory fall.

Everything

Jesus will never be all you need until He's all you have. - Kirk Franklin

Looks like I'm in the best place I could possibly be in.

Masculinity

What kind of man can't provide for his family? Jesus you're all I
have.
