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

Update on Joey

Just talked to Joey's nurse and she said he is doing really well!  They are talking about taking the breathing machine off of him today.  He is able to write notes to them.  If they take the breathing machine off then he will be able to talk!  I'm sure his throat is gonna be really sore, though!  His nose is still bleeding a little.  They still have him strapped down and will until they take the breathing machine off, I assume.  Praise the LORD!  I asked the nurse if there was a possibility of him being moved to a different room soon.  She said she hoped that he was that much better by Thursday!  I meant to ask her if they had figured out how to feed him cuz Bro. Ellis said that was a concern yesterday and that they might feed him through the thing that was in his nose, but they took that out, whatever it was!  I'm sure he is feeling like a mack truck hit him!  But Praise the LORD for the wonderful improvement!
 
I'm going to call back later today and talk to the nurse again after the doctor has been in.  It is noon and his doctors still have not been there!
