random thoughts

Oh Lord you are the one I take refuge in you are the one who makes the noise fade away. Let my heart break for those around me. You are the one who makes all things come into being. Lead this time of reflection be present in all moments weather asleep or awake. Change me into a woman who is wrapped up with a yearning the goes above my knowledege here and now of the Gospel.

I am so amazed by what the Lord is doing in this internship. It has only been a couple of weeks but the Lord is moving powerfully. just pondering life's question of what is it that we are truely living for? what is is that makes us so different as Christians?


A quote came to mind when reflecting on this idea so i thought i would share it

"I'm a part of the fellowship of the unashamed. I have the Holy Spirit Power. The dye has been cast. I have stepped over the line, the decison has been made. I am a disciple of His. I won't look back, let up, slow down, back away, or be still. My past is reedeemed, my present makes sense, my future is secure. I' m finished and done with low living, sight walking, small planning, smooth knees, colorless dreams, tame visions, worldly talking, cheap giving, and dwafted goals. I no longer need preeminence, prosperity, postion, promotions, platitudes or popularity. I don't have to be right, first, recongized, praised, reguarded or rewarded. I now live by faith, lean on his presence, walk by patience, am lifted up by prayer and labor by power. My face is set, my gate is fast, my goal is heaven, my road is narrow, my way rough, my companions are few, my guide reliable, my mission clear. I cannot be bought, compromised, detoured, lured away, turned back, deluded or delayed. I will not flinch in the face of sacrifice, hesitate in the presence of the adversary, negogiate athe table of the enemy, ponder at tht pool of popularity, or meander in the maze of mediocrity. I won't give up, shut up, let up until I've stayed up. I am a disciple of Jesus. I must go till he comes, give till I drop, preach till all know, work till he stops me, and when he comes for his own, he'll have no problem recognizing me at all. " unknown author


This author says it far better than I ever could. I want this kind of passion and view of life. I want to live like this.
