Excerpt: The Pursuit of God, The Human Thirst for the Divine, A.W. Tozer

O God, I have tasted Thy goodness, and it has both satisfied me and made me thirsty for more. I am painfully conscious of my need of further grace. I am ashamed of my lack of desire. O God, The Triune God, I want to want Thee; I long to be filled with longing; I thirst to be made more thirsty still. Show me Thy glory, I pray Thee, that so I may know Thee indeed. Begin in mercy a new work of love within me. Say to my soul, "Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away." Then give me grace to rise and follow Thee up from this misty lowland where I have wondered so long. In Jesus' name. Amen

January 16, 2009

Today's post is about a part of my day that I am very thankful for and take great advantage of it! Every morning I am afforded a nice, leisurely time of Bible reading! When I was working, I would rush through a chapter, usually not remembering what I had read 15 minutes later! Now, it is not uncommon for me to read 3 or 4 chapters in a sitting! And the best part is being able to savor the words I have read! I am more blessed by my readings and I know my Heavenly Father is happier with my fruitful time with Him! Thank you, Lord, for the blessing of being able to stay home and have the opportunity to hunger and thirst after Your Word!

I created today's layout with a new kit by Bannerwoman called, "My Little Ladybug." You can find her kit at Digitals by clicking on the Date Heading above. In the right hand column at the top are some FREE quick pages that I created using Banner's kit. Also included are some templates of mine that I used to create the quick pages with. Click on each preview for the download link. They will only be available for a short time, so get them today! Comments appreciated!
