May I know You?

      
Receive today a personal invitation!

        Somebody wants to know you, that person desires your undivided attention, He desires your unaltered affection. Do you feel thrilled when you know that somebody likes you, or feel empty because nobody notices you.

        The God who made everything into its existence desires to have an intimate relationship with you. Hey! how wonderful it is. If you feel unnoticed, unloved then be awaken with this truth, that Christ died for your sins, and He wants you to be His, and be His alone.

        If this truth sounds an old truth to you, it's not a suprising  thing to me I know it already. Ask yourself with these questions: Have you come to know the Lord deeply? Have you encountered His love in a fresh new way? Has life become stagnant as it is? Are you dragging to live the christian life? Has the cross became an old story to you? I'am asking the same questions to myself as well, for the Lord has been teaching me these days intimacy with Him. I am rebuked to know that deep within me, I am far from Him.

        I will admit that yes, I am serving the Lord in full time ministry, reading His word, praying, teaching, yet with the work that is overwhelming, it is also consuming and my God is left in the shelf, thinking I am doing things for Him. Deep within is a center stage of performance, of ministries, of tasks need to be done and not to experience Him anymore. I fail to realize that what He desires of me is not the work I can accomplish or do but what matters most is my love relationship to Him. My personal time with my Savior, with the lover of my soul, with my creator. That I will be awakened, captivated, consumed, inspired and awestruck with this divine love. That I may encounter once again His presence that comforts, that heals, that restores, and that I may know Him.

         What would it be, if you do ministry, accomplish great things yet you're worn out spiritually- driven by flesh, motivated by self. What would it be if you finish alot of task yet neglect to spend time in solitude, in prayer, in personal revelation. And what it be, if you do more for God and have not seen His face anymore.
Before I could reach such realization is painful breaking's and moldings yet the more you experience such, you will reach to the end that nothing really matters... nothing really is more vital than experiencing Christ. It is by seeking Him and in seeking Him, you will be finding Him, when you do, you will be encountering Him,
thus knowing Him and by knowing Him, you will be loving Him, and then serving Him! He beckons for your attention, May I know you? Will you let Him too?

       "Ministry is an outflow of the inner life... take care of the depth of your life and let God take care of the breadth of your ministry." ~Edmund Chan~


Prayer:

     Lord I am sorry for the days, for the months I trade you with the things I think were so important.
I am so sorry if I am consumed with the ministry and the work and it became an idol to me.
I am sorry if I am so proud to admit that I always need you and  you are always the fuel that will
ignite my walk and life. I am sorry if I fail to experience you anymore and replace you with other things.

Thank You for your forgiveness, thank You that You never give up on me a midst all my imperfections,
your love is perfect. I appropriate your promise and help me to seek your face more than your hand.

Amen!

Oh! let my heart crave for His presence, that as the psalmist said, "as the deer panths for the water so my soul longeth after thee!"
