"Fuel your prayer life by long hours of studying and praying the Word. It’s the only way to cultivate a prophetic spirit. Unless you give yourself to the Word it’s hard to maintain vision. Studying the Word makes you want to know God; it makes you

hungry

for the One who all the songs are about."

goodness. gracious.

the sun is still shining and the music is still playing :)

so i'm watching the awakening meeting, and i'm just sitting here thinking how insane it is that it is still going on. i love how the Lord hasn't stopped moving, just like He said. i love how i can still feel the Spirit on what's going on, how i can know that they aren't making this thing up. it's so encouraging to see His faithfulness...He really does keep His promises. i also love how they don't seem to be getting tired of this. wes hall seems just as strong as He did the first day...just as stirred up as He did when it began.
it's good to see His faithfulness on display :)

and i've decided that i really do want to learn how to play the piano.

"...one of the most ‘dangerous’ things in existence is a Christian who knows who they are, and who knows the affections of the Father toward them...when we live, knowing the affections and the security of God’s love for us, we will be bold to go and to knock on huge doors too big for us to open ourselves. That is the most striking difference between orphans and sons. Orphans don’t know their origin, therefore they live life from an insecure and uncertain foundation...Sons and daughters on the other hand live from a foundation of confidence, knowing the security of God’s love.

Your love is strong.

"Each of us, in all walks of life, in every workplace, in every field of education, in all denominations, and in all nations, has an invitation to partner with the Lord as He releases His purposes in the earth. This is not about where you are from or how gifted you may be, it is about being alive on the planet right now, with a heart on fire for the things of God. There is no limit to what the Lord can do through an empty vessel, fully surrendered to His love. Now is the time for all of God’s people to join in His work of preparing the earth for the culmination and climax of this present age, the return of His son Jesus!" -nathan wood (ihop's blog writer)

i love how the Lord will use us....as long as we're willing, He can do anything through us. no matter what our strengths are! He's too cool.

amen :)
