So here I am, at Panera again. A couple days after revival at Cedar Rapids First Church of the Nazarene. What an awesome time of renewal, and a great chance to keep in touch with old friends, Jeremiah and Eric. These men have definitely continued to pursue God fervently, and are the type of people u meet that remind you (not that we forget, right?) that a relationship with God leads us to seeking an understanding of the Scriptures that goes beyond the verse-a-day concept.
Someday I’ll have a Scholars Biblical Studies Library (silver edition) by Logos. But until then I at least need to be spending more time in the Bibles I do have, and perhaps the few websites I know of that assist you in getting deeper into the original texts of the scriptures. This is God’s desire.
A lot happening in life right now, of which I’ll write about at a later date….when I have more time and freedom. But God is definitely refining His work in my life, and I’m excited to see where I’m headed. I can not deny what I’ve been created to become…a servant of God….passionately in Love/being Loved/responding to His love daily.
Still reading/studying/reflecting on life. It was busy for a while there, with holidays and revival. But Lord willing this will become more of a regular event once again…I need it. I feel kinda feminine…but resist the temptation to refer to this as any type of “diary”. It’s a mental/spiritual/emotional outpouring that helps me to put daily thoughts/musings into words. Someday I’ll write a book, or several books, or perhaps just an article in a magazine, and u’ll remember back when I used to write these. I’m so silly.
Between today and Monday, I’ll be working on a more regular devotional pace. I need to balence my work/play time as well as my study/devotional time. They all flow together so much, that I’m easily lost and thinking I’m doing all 4 at once. But life needs to be intentional, in most every way. I’m working on it.:) Anyways…God bless for now…and peace.
