You're all I want
You're all I need
You're everything...
This video needs no explanation...if you've been there...it will hit your core...and I'm not even going to pretend that there are words for that.
If you haven't been there...pray for someone you know who has because I can promise you that the pain is still real.
*Luke 7:47* Thank you, Jesus. Thank you. YOU. ARE. GOOD. I. AM. VALUABLE.
Do you ever have those days where God is SHOUTING at you all day? Today was one of those days.
I love it...because
I can't analyze it.
I can't question it.
I can't pick it apart.
I can't doubt it.
I can't over think it
.....I just know that He is speaking directly to me and by His grace giving me the ability to understand what He is saying. With that comes confidence.
I can't even really articulate all that He talked to me about...so...snippets will have to do.
1) 1 Corinthians 1:26-31 > God is attracted to weakness. Because that is desirable? ugh. no. Because when I am weak, broken, and empty of myself...He has room to move in, take over, and work!
2) The name "Esther" comes from the Hebrew word str with means "to conceal" - IT WASN'T ABOUT HER GOOD LOOKS! Imagine that! We ladies have such a love/hate relationship with beauty...and even with Esther (the KNOWN beautiful woman of the Bible) it was NOT about that. Girls...shoot...this struggle goes all the way back to then...time for us to face it head on. You think it's a coincidence that God created her physically beautiful as well?...NO! It was what was hidden UNDER her good looks that fulfilled her destiny NOT her beauty! God is cool..eh?
3) You can not amputate your history from your destiny. God wants to use it. You can't become who God wants you to be without your HISTORY. In Jeremiah 29:11 the word "future" has the exact same root as the word "past". My past...and my future...your past...and your future...have the same root. Christ turns history into a God-granted future. Dwelling on or staying in the past is sin because we have victory in Christ - but LEARN FROM IT! We try to destroy all evidences and erase all memory of where we've been or what we've done...when in reality...we wouldn't be where we are RIGHT NOW if it weren't for that past....
4) Colossians 2:10 - "and in Him you have been made complete and He is the head over all rule and authority" - I am whole because He has made me that way. END of STORY. I am so glad that my completion comes from NOTHING and NO ONE PERSON on this earth but from Him.
5) Song of Solomon 7:10 - "I am my beloved's and His desire is for me" - God is romantic...and that rocks my world.
6) I have kind of decided that there is no sense in talking to people about their priorities...after a little observation of a persons actions, their priorities reveal themselves. I have no scriptural backing for that...yet.
"God loves you. Personally. Powerfully. Passionately.
Others have promised and failed.
God has promised and succeeded.
He loves you with an unfailing love.
His love - if you will let it - can fill you
and leave you with a love worth giving"
