"You don't know Me like that..."

My mind is begining to hunger for something more than the trivial lip service about culture and making people feel good about their sin.

I picked up A.W.Pinks "Attribute of God" this morning.

right off the bat I realized this is where the hunger would be met. a simple, reminder of thoughts gone by and a deep longing for Holy.

"Aquaint now thyself with Him, and be at peace: thereby good shall come unto thee." Job 22:21

I read somewhere yesterday about one who had a moment with the father. a moment that turned into moments. I read and became envious. got busy with stuff and it slipped into memory.

this morning after time in the Word, standing in the shower I remembered that moment.
"Lord, I want that spontanious love for you that flows from my soul at un expected times in the day."

"You don't know me like that..."

as my heart stopped and I struggled for a breath...silence...then...

"but you can."

tears flooded my eyes.

not that I had not known this, but reality often has a way of taking our breath.

Jer 9:23-24
23 Thus says the LORD, " Let not a wise man boast of his wisdom, and let not the mighty man boast of his might, let not a rich man boast of his riches; 24 but let him who boasts boast of this, that he understands and knows Me, that I am the LORD who exercises lovingkindness, justice and righteousness on earth; for I delight in these things," declares the LORD.

I spend much time throwing rocks. hell, I figure that i deserve to be able to throw em. they have been thrown at me. mostly at the bride, more at people who claim to run the bride.

I am done with that.

I reslove to know Him.


Phil 3:7-11
7 But whatever things were gain to me, those things I have counted as loss for the sake of Christ. 8 More than that, I count all things to be loss in view of the surpassing value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them but rubbish so that I may gain Christ, 9 and may be found in Him, not having a righteousness of my own derived from the Law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which comes from God on the basis of faith, 10 that I may know Him and the power of His resurrection and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death; 11 in order that I may attain to the resurrection from the dead.

like that...
