jeremiah 33:3
call to me and i will answer you and tell you
great and unsearchable things you do not know.
i've been on a "book spree" for this 2 weeks. and im currently reading the 3rd book in my 2nd week, titled "Drawing Near". though im only at the first few chapters of the book, God already spoke to me in many areas of my life, and time and again, He has proven Himself real every time i chose to obey.
back to the book:
one thing that struck me was this. we often pray for God to increase our hunger for Him. but the truth is this.
our hunger is never determined by God. It's determined by us.
God looks for those who are dilligent in spirit, who will seek and persue, even if it takes tenacious persistance. we have nothing to lose and everything to gain when we seek God with all our heart.
and many times all we lack is the heart of immense desire that throws away every single bit of procrastinating spirit in us.
God promised us that He will draw near to us when we draw near to Him!
He never pushes His way into our heart.(duh, God's a gentleman)
remember this, that we are the ones who determine our hunger, not God.
how do we gain that hunger then? it all depends on what we feed on.
if we always feed ourselves with the things of the world, we would naturally quench our thirst with the things of the world. and likewise happens when we feed ourselves with the word of God:)
i believe that God has a word for everyone of us. all we need to do is to pick up the call, get our hearts settled down and ready to hear from Him
333. lets have a chat with God today.
