Jesus replied, "I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never be hungry again. Whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.
John 6:35
I have a Maker
He formed my heart
Before even time began
My life was in his hands
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/t/tommy_walker/he_knows_my_name.html ]
I have a Father
He calls me His own
He'll never leave me
No matter where I go
He knows my name
He knows my every thought
He sees each tear that falls
And He hears me when I call
He knows my name- Tommy Walker
There is this thing deep inside of me that is longing for more. I'm going day by day more and more unsatisfied. Today I watched this youtube video about priorities. It drove me completely nuts by the way. It was just this cartoon doing the same thing over and over again. He would walk to the bookshelf, then to a table behind him, kneel down next to a box, and then sit at a desk. This cycle would repeat for a good two minutes. It was absolutely redundant but it made its point. After a while you see Jesus just sitting and waiting for the dude. Angels are behind him first one tries to get his attention and then the other one goes wait let's not bother him Jesus is waiting on the dude. It made me realize the reason for this longing deep inside of me.
It makes me think really hard. When was the last time I sat down and really just spent some quality time with God. I mean good quality time with him. Time with him without any distractions. Time with him without worries. Most of the time when I am trying to spend time with him my eyes are going over words, or my ears are hearing, or my mouth is singing but my heart is in a whole different place. I think the video I watched today was God's reminder to me that I should take time to do absolutely nothing but focus on God.
I need to find his light because lately life has been an aimless walk down a dark dark dark path. I want him to shine his light on me to show others that there is hope. Anyway, God helps those who help themselves so it has to start with me making time for him. I'll see where this goes and I'll follow the one who is the source of happiness when life hits me hard with lows.
Psalm 39:7
New Living Translation (NLT) 7 And so, Lord, where do I put my hope? My only hope is in you.
