He is the One

"For the eyes of the Lord range throughout the earth to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to him" (2 Chronicles 16:9)

I was talking to Brittany the other day and she spoke of how she found her life verse, referring to a bible verse that seems to speak the theme of her life. It was really interesting she brought this up because the night before, I was reading this book of scripture and was struck by the verse above and i couldn't get it out of my head. When she said "life verse," I realized that perhaps I have found mine...

No matter where I go, what I am doing, I desire to go for the sake of knowing my Lord deeper and stronger than ever before. That is not an easy path but it is surely worth it...How amazing is it to know that His eyes follow me wherever I go, giving me strength as I seek to be fully commited to Him in every way.

In the midst of reflection and preparation over the past couple of weeks, my thoughts have been so many. I've been having such a desire to write and tell of these incredible things that God is doing...and the words are somewhat coming, but honestly, they fail miserably. I still can't do it justice and never will be able to. Yet, i can't keep silent about this God of mine!

He is the One who proclaims bold promises and fulfills them.

He is the One who hears all cries of prayer and never delays in answering them.

He is the One who has given the gift of healing and fulfills it.

He is the One who creates and shapes beauty beyond compare.

He is the One who understands the divine mystery and beauty of man and woman.

He is the One who gives and anoints us with gifts that we can love Him more through.

He is the One who gives peace as the world does not give.

He is the One to whom I can look for all things.

He is the One, the Only, my God...
