Worship

There are some days that my heart leaps at the thought of the Lord. I can confess...no, not every day..but some days. Today is one of those days...I just want to run screaming down the street "GOD IS GOOD" but I don't think that would encourage or direct anyone's attention to God...just to me, and they might think i'm on drugs, which in turn would be a stumbling block.. HOWEVER, I can write this silly little blog, post a few scriptures on my facebook and twitter, text a few friends and let them know i'm holding them up in prayer today. I can get on my face and laugh and cry and thank my heavenly Father...SO I WILL.

As I type this, I hurt for those who have never and will never experience this INCOMPARABLE and UNEXPLAINABLE joy. Close friends, close family, even church members...will miss this. Why? Well that's pretty simple actually. Pride. Fear. Doubts. Lust. Lies.

I use to wonder how some had so much joy for Christ and I didn't. It would piss me off, to be quite honest. Then one day someone told me, it wasn't God who was choosing not to reveal himself to me...but it was ME being too wrapped up in myself to allow Him to reveal himself to me... It was as if I was too concerned with watching my favorite movie, that I completely missed the BEST episode on TV. That episode won't be on hulu, I didn't record it, there will never be a re-run. It's done and gone. One day another episode like it will come, and it too will be the BEST, but I have to stop watching my "favorite movie" to see it. Silly comparison I know, but hopefully you get the picture.

Don't pass up another chance at joy created and designed specifically for YOU. Let God pour down His abundant love on you. Let Him bless you.

I promise it'll be the best thing you have ever experienced. Scout's honor!
