I wanted to blog about something so I decided to blog about last night's Worship Band practice, the experience. I am so blessed to be part of that group. God reaalllly showed up last night. That must seem weird to read. " How does God show up?" one may ask. Well, God's presence is so obvious sometimes. Think of it as a heat. There's a radiator in the room and then heat just starts oozing out of it. and when you walk into that room, you feel the heat. It can't be ignored. That's what the presence of God feels like to me. We are the radiator and God's Holy Spirit is the heat. When God lives in us (because we asked Him to, we said to him, You first- me last) He can just come out of us and fill a place. It's something supernatural. And when you truly lay down your desires and just want to thank Him and kneel before Him like one would do before a King, He really moves in you and around you. His love is intoxicating (in a awesome way). Even though there isn't literally a smell in the room, He's like a fragrance. Imagine your favorite smell, a smell that calms you...that's what God is to me.
Well, that's what God was doing last night with us. It is so awesome to see your friends show their love for God with the talents that were given to them. And I pray that we never lose that. And when a group does that act of love together it really brings them closer... giving us unity. Reminds us that we are there for God and His love and to want more of Him on this Earth.
I don't have enough words. But there is a song that describes how I feel about God. And if you guys are ever interested in listening to it, its by Rick Pino, and the song is "Your Love is Like"
Well, I'd love to go on about what God is like to me but I have class in a few. I just wanted to write a bit about Him. It brings me back in focus. I was getting carried away with depressing thoughts. Losing my grip on what God tells me about me and letting lies of never being good enough enter in. but NO!!!
It's a constant fight. It's a good race. And I'll continue fighting the good fight.
My final thought is that I hope you know God in your own intimate way. I pray you want that and that when you do, your eyes are open to see Him move, like the heat from the radiator. ;)
Shalom!
