Crazy Love


Following Christ isn't something that can be done halfheartedly or on the side. It is not a label we can display when it is useful. It must be central to everything we do and are. Something mysterious, even supernatural must happen in order for genuine love for God to grow in our hearts. The Holy Spirit has to move in our lives.
It is when we STOP actively loving Him that we find ourselves restless and gravitating toward other means of fulfillment.
~Reading Crazy Love~

You have made known to me the path of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence, with eternal pleasures at your right hand. (Ps.16:11)

The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and I am helped. My heart leaps for joy and I will give thanks to him in song. (Ps.28:7)

Satisfy us in the morning with your unfailing love, that we may sing for joy and be glad all our days (Ps.90:14)

The Mountain Of Fear & The Mountain Of Joy...

Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe, for our "God is a consuming fire." (Hebrews 12:28, 29 NIV)
