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

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Michael!

I hope you have a fantastic day!  It is hard to believe that you are 30 years old!  I'm feeling somewhat old since I have 2 children in their 30's now!

Dad and I love you very much!  We are proud of the man you have become!  We pray you continue to put the LORD first in all aspects of your life!

Love,
mom

Thank you for raising such an amazing man. He's good to the core, loves the Lord, is a great Dad, and keeps my in stitches because he's so funny. Life is good with him and it's mostly due to how great you raised him.

Knowing the mistakes I made, I know it is by God's grace that he is who he is! I'm thankful that the LORD saw fit to "loan" him to me for those few years!
