It is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom. – Luke 12:32
I had a joy attack on the way home from speaking last night and it occurred to me how awesome it is to have the Lord as “another” than me. Maybe we really are one in eternity where there is no misperception of separation (I believe that), but as long as I am perceiving myself as an individual human being on planet earth, the most joyous experience of my life is the abiding sense that God is with me, but not me. He gives me someone to worship other than myself.
I’ve always known that worship is the response to God’s presence, but now I see that it’s the response to God, period. Loving God is worship. Thanking God is worship. Seeking God is worship.
I love the moments of reflection when the magnitude of how far He has brought me really sinks in. What a beautiful journey; led by an awesome God.
The Journey Continues
