"For the Word of God is living and active, sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints ad marrow: it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart. Nothing in all creation is hidden from God's sight. Everything is uncovered and laid before the eyes of Him to whom we must give an account." ~Hebrews 4:12-13 My God is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. He is God of the past, the present and the future. His Word was living yesterday. It is living today, and it will be living tomorrow. My God defeats time, age and wear. Seek Him.
I have been in amazement this week with all the little things He has shown me. His untameable love for me has given me a happiness I cannot describe. This kind of happiness can't be found just anywhere. "Seek first His kingdom and His righteousness and all these things will be added unto you." ~Matthews 6:33 Seek God first. Seek His will in your life, and He will give you a happiness you cannot describe.
I understand the difficulty at giving up the things we love in order to give them to God. It is not easy. But God wants to work with empty vessels: things he can mold into what He wants. Take this song by Jeremy Camp into consideration. But listen, really listen, to the words. Tuck them away in your heart, and remember to empty yourself completely before God. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zl85EU33jgo
Holy fire, burn away
My desire of anything
that is not of you and is of me
I want more of you and less of me
Empty me, empty me, yeah
Fill, won't you fill me
With you and less of me, yeah
