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

July 9, 2009

This week I have been working on VBS decorations. Today I finished this mural for the front of the auditorium in the fellowship hall where we will hold our VBS next month. It turned out really cute, at least I think so! I believe it is even better than the example provided because mine has more depth and texture to it. Tomorrow I will begin making a decoration that the kids can stick their faces through an opeing for a picture. Hopefully it will turn out as well as this mural did!
