Some Thoughts From My Journal

Jul 8, 2008

I journaled the following thoughts the other week and felt like I needed to share them, here they are…

“Jesus, YOU are what makes things right with God.  YOU are the reason I am right with God.  Not fasting, not prayer, not reading my Bible—YOU!  You are my righteousness.  THANK YOU!”

“I am never going to be without a message as long as I am listening to You!”

“May I never allow what people are saying to trump what You are saying.  I want to hear You!”

“You will NEVER abandon me, WOW!”

“The power of the cross is in me.  Lord, what is there in me that I am completely unaware of?  Jesus bring out of me Your power in me.  May I live and operate in YOUR power!  I don’t want to know what I can do - that is unimpressive and will not last.  I want to see and know what YOU can do in, around, through and for me.”

“Is there anything in my life in which I am refusing to obey You in?”

“Your heart leans towards forgiveness - may mine always go that way as well.”

Those are just a few thoughts I wrote down.
