I don't want to leave...

This morning I've spent a lot of time with Jesus. I love it! Just to be in His presence, I could spend the whole day just being here. I can't wait until the day when He will be made fully known to me, to finally be in His physical presence, it brings me to tears just thinking of it.

When I have those precious times of intimacy with Jesus I never want to leave. I want to rest in His presence forever!

I feel like I'm repeating myself over and over with my posts recently, but I can't help it. Since I've been in Wales Jesus has continually been teaching to be still and rest in Him. It's hard, and so against our culture of work work work! It's a battle, simply to be. To rest. To not worry. To fight for those time of intimacy with Jesus. But when I make myself simply sit and seek, my heart is lifted! I'm filled, and I can't help but want to share some of it with you. When I sit and pray, He speaks to me, He showers His love on me, He brings me back into His joy and peace!

Hallelujah!

I don't want to leave. I want to be in the presence of Jesus, ALL the time! There's nothing better, nothing at all.

Hallelujah!

Jesus is fighting for me, He's fighting for a relationship with me. He's restless and desperate for me, willing to give everything, even His life! What am I willing to give to reach out to Him? A half-hearted prayer and doing my daily read-through-the-bible-in-a-year program isn't quite enough. He wants my love! He wants to be delighted by my presence, by me saying that there is nothing at all more important than simply sitting at His feet and crying out for Him! I want to be taken away by His presence. There's so much more to Jesus than we know. He's a raging river, but we may only be experiencing a slow drip of who He is.

I don't want to leave.

I want more.

Hallelujah!

Oh the sweet presence of my Jesus... I pray that if you know Jesus you will come to know Him in a deeper way, and if you don't know who He is I pray that you will come into a relationship with Him.

He's fighting for you, every second of every day! He wants you so much!

Please take some time to be with Jesus today. He's waiting for you, simply come to Him as you are and start talking, that's all it takes.

I want more of you, Jesus, take me away in Your presence!

 Hallelujah!
