To find Him for myself

At my trip to Wesley's library this morning before service, I rediscovered George MacDonald who is, among other things, a fantasy author. He is one of the few whose writings you can describe as "delightful" - "delightful" in a tingly, childlike, gleeful, part dreamy way (whatever you make of that). Anyway, while reading John Ortberg's Faith and Doubt , I came across this quote by George MacDonald - food for thought - My business is not to prove to any other man that there is a God, but to find him for myself. My basic thoughts are about how in finding Him for ourselves, sometimes it involves proving Him to other men. And in proving Him to other men, perhaps it leads to finding Him for ourselves.

Worship – demands my soul, my life, my all

Worship? Were the whole realm of nature mine That were an offering far too small Love so amazing, so divine Demands my soul, my life, my all

Feeling better (:

i'm feeling better today (: not as "dry". re-energised. maybe a result of listening to Him? God works in funny ways. we mustn't ever think we know better than Him. cos most certainly, we don't. i need You, God. thank You for being good, always. okay i feel a "welling up" again (yay!). it's a good feeling - not something i can explain exactly. excitement. anticipation. expecting. knowing. that God, You have done great things. and You will do even greater things. indeed, the glory of the present house will be greater than the former (Haggai 2:9) God, i am expecting. and please. let me be part of it (: grant me humility, wisdom and grace. thank You that because your love for me (especially shown through Jesus), I can live free. i will live free.
