"Has God forgotten to be gracious? Or has He in anger withdrawn His compassion? Then I said, 'It is my grief, that the right hand of the Most High has changed.' I shall remember the deeds of the LORD; surely I will remember Thy wonders of old. I will meditate on all Thy work, and muse on Thy deeds. Thy way, O God, is holy; what god is great like our God? Thou art the God who workest wonders; Thou has made known Thy strength among the peoples." Psalm 77:9-14
what more can i contribute this joyful heart but to the God of grace who awoke me this morning?
there is no logical reason, for what good comes out of this dark stained heart but that which
is being created new. one day i muse over my own "good" plans and wonder where God's graciousness exists. what a fool - it is God's right hand who even holds my heart, making it beat.
God's grace never ceases or I would cease.
Lord let my mind and heart meditate all my moments upon You.
Thy ways are holy.
Thy ways are grand.
Thy ways are sure.
Thy ways are the perfect art.
Praise in the morning!
Praise mid-day!
Praise in the evening!
All the day Lord, grant praise to be on the tongue of my heart.

"Still Your Love Goes On"
"I always complicate these things.
Been hidden everything for me.
But who can match Your grace,
Your mercy can fill the darkest place.
Still Your love goes on.
Still You break me down.
Still Your love runs free.
Still You wash over me, over me.
I know sometimes I loose my way.
And then my heart gets so afraid.
But I realize, I must walk my faith and not by sight.
Still Your love goes.
Still You break me down.
Still Your love runs free.
Still You wash over, You wash over me.
All is new.
Oh Your love goes on, its all that I can see.
Oh Your love goes on, it reaches all of me.
Oh Your love goes on, into my deepest dreams.
Oh Your love goes on, and on and on.
Still Your love goes on.
Still You break me down.
Still Your love runs free.
Still You wash over me, You wash over me.
Your love goes on."

Know God, do not refuse Him, Know God, do not have an uncircumcised heart
"Thus says the LORD: 'Let not the wise man boast in his wisdom, let not the mighty man boast in his might, let not the rich man boast in his riches, but let him who boasts boast in this, that he understands and knows me, that I am the LORD who practices steadfast love, justice, and righteousness in the earth. For in these things I delight, declares the LORD." Jeremiah 9:23-24
God goes through the reality of the Israelites 1)they did not know Him 2)they refused to know Him 3)they had uncircumcised hearts. (Jer. 9)
God was heartbroken that His own people boasted in such filth as riches and mans wisdom.
He did not need them, but He called them. He was not lacking anything, but desired them.
Boast in knowing Me - do you not understand the supremacy of knowing I AM?
"For this reason, because I have heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love toward all the saints, I do not cease to give thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers, that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you a spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of Him, having the eyes of your hearts enlightened, that you may know what is the hope to which He has called you, what are the riches of His glorious inheritance in the saints, and what is the immeasurable greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His great might that He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places" Ephesians 1:15-20
Lord give me a spirit of wisdom and revelation to know You.

Get up!
Beat.
Beat.
No sleep.
Get up My servant!
What else must I do to awaken you?
Back breaking.
Cough out your filth and let it stick you no more.
Sit up!
Read. Listen. Pray. Worship.
You know why your distracted.
You know why your low.
You know where the living water is.
Come and drink.
Get up!
Samuel did.
Get up!
Joshua did.
Get up!
Ezekiel did.
Get up!
Stop digging a hole off the narrow way.
I'm still here. I Am.
"Do not trust in oppression,
Nor vainly hope in robbery;
If riches increase,
Do not set your heart on them.
God has spoken once,
Twice I have heard this:
That power belongs to God.
Also to You, O Lord, belongs mercy;
For You render to each one according to his work." Psalm 62:10-12

Distracted.
The bird doesn't even mock me outside my window anymore.
He must have met his mate and is no longer distracted.
I kind of miss him singing outside my window at 1 in the morning.
I'm not going to act like I've tapped into some amazing truth recently.
I haven't been in the Word regularly. I'm an all or nothing type personality
which is mostly a weakness. Some people struggle with having a meaningful
devotion even if they have the time and discipline of doing it everyday down.
I have the struggle of doing it when I know my mind is not in it. I only expect
the best when I study the Bible. But my weakness comes in because I only expect
the best when I'm my best which is a foolish concept.
Is it bad that my own mind is my biggest distraction?
I suppose that makes sense. Whether we are made of mind, body, soul, or just a brain and a heart or whatever philosophical view you think is most logical - its all connected. So if my mind and heart are not in it then I'm distracted. But to have a low expectation when I'm not at my best is completly foolish. I'm an imbecile when it comes to relying on my own state being in control. It takes part in what I need God to fix, but is arrogant of me to think that nothing great can happen when I'm weak. Does God not delight in a broken and contrite spirit simply because we are the most moldable when we bring nothing to offer? Our pride is something to offer over to be killed but not that brings Him glory otherwise.
Sometimes I think I have no talents because I'm to prideful with them.
Its like there taken away so that I can be distracted only by God.
God. What are You up to?
"Like the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud on the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness all around. Such was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the LORD. And when I saw it, I fell on my face, and I heard the voice of one speaking." Ez. 1:28
I'm waiting for the voice part.
"And I, when I came to you, brotheres, did not come proclaiming to you the testimony of God with lofty speech or wisdom. For I decided to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ and Him crucified. And I was with you in weakness and in fear and much trembling, and my speech and my message were not in plausible words of wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power, that your faith might not rest in the wisdom of men but in the power of God."
1 Cor. 2:1-4
I wonder what Paul thought about this before he wrote it.
Its like I know nothing - so that I can know Christ - so that others worship Him.
God - obviously I need to pray more.
"My soul, wait silently for God alone, for my expectation is from Him." Psalm 62:85

Do You Get It?
"And the LORD said to me, 'This gate shall be shut; it shall not be opened, and no one shall enter by it, for the LORD God of Israel has entered by it; therefore it shall be shut." 44:2
A new temple is going to be built, once the faithful LORD rescued His rebellious people from the Babylonian captivity. It was crucial for the priests and people to follow every detail that the LORD laid out for them, especially in regards to the temple. Why? Because the LORD's very presence dwelled there. The HOLY I AM. To do anything less then what He required was trecherous. Do you get it? Holy. No one can enter even the same gate.
"And they shall not come near to Me to serve as a priest to Me, nor come near to any of My holy things, to the things that are most holy; but they shall bear their shame and ther abominations which they have committed. Yet I will appoint them to keep charge of the house, of all its service, and of all that shall be done in it." 44:13-14
Even the priests were not worthy to fulfill their role as a priest. "Their ways before Me were like the uncleanness of a woman in her menstrual impurity." 36:16 This very tribe that was set apart to minister to the LORD in all the ways He had laid out for them, defiled Him. Yet, ha, God in His astounding grace kept a place for them to still point to His holiness. They still were to serve in His house where He dwelled and keep it pure. Do you get it? Worthy. More than enough to demand there to be a house and a people completly devoted to serving the
Holy I AM.
"And it shall be with regard to an inheritance for them, that I am their inheritance; and you shall give them no possession in Israel - I am their possession." 44:28
The greatest possession for the priest was to be the very first fruit offerings given to God. God was their greatest reward. The very act of serving Him. He was to be all they lived for. So much so that they did not even get an inheritance like others so that the Holy I AM clearly was their all.
Do you get it? The Holy I AM no longer dwells in temples made by man but in those He died for. We have been treacherous towards God and have defiled His name countless times. We were far from pure. We could not even enter into God's presence. Yet, ha, yet Jesus forgives are sin and cleanses our filth by giving us His righteousness. And then, the very LORD, the Holy I AM, who did not even let those priests who had defiled His name act as priest - the worthy One who could not be in the same inner court as sinners, now dwells in temples of clay that have been prepared by Jesus' precious blood. I stand in awe....
All glory to You Lord.
Who is worthy of affection.
Who is our great reward - our possession.
Let adoration fill us.
Holy are You Lord.

Many Waters Cannot Quench Love
"Set me as a seal upon your heart, as a seal upon your arm, for love is strong as death, jealousy is fierce as the grave, its flashes are flashes of fire, the very flame of the LORD. Many waters cannot quench love, neither can floods drown it. If a man offered for love all the wealth of his house, he would be utterly despised." Song of Solomon 8:6-7
Waters. Deep. Predictably unpredictable. Constant. Coming, breaking, going back out.
The ocean is always able to capture my attention for hours if I just stare. I can be sitting or standing with only my feet in it as it runs over my toes and tries to take me with it as it goes back and forth. I wonder how many good hours of meditation and pondering I would have if I lived at the beach and could go every day....sorry, distracted desire....You know the question of what comes to mind when you think of God? My mind is strange and I often feel unrelatable - mostly I picture the actual word, God, with a capital G. But closely related is the ocean. Whenever I see the ocean, I think of God. I'm not sure all the reasons, but maybe its connected with being in awe.
I sat on the beach this past Saturday morning and just stared. Lots of thoughts came to my mind - several things on it. But it came back to God. I drew a heart in the sand beside me and I pulled out my Bible and turned the pages to Song of Solomon, probably many reasons for that as well. I read the last chapter and v.6-7 spoke. It was like God was saying to me "the ocean cannot quench My love for you Katie. be satisfied. set your heart on Me. I AM jealous for you and I will win your affections." When I went back to standing in the ocean, water rushed up over me like a lover runs to embrace his beloved. God loves me. Why do I need anything else?
I don't.

1)Carpe? 2)Service...
Blogging. Its been on my mental list to do but not so much my carpe diem.
Several things I could blog about - choices.... I'll try to catch up on the several things I suppose, one at a time. Spiritual Disciplines by Donald Whitney is on my summer reading list.
I've only progressed one more chapter - a week ago haha. Service was the topic, one I actually like to think about. I seem to be reading and think "thats a good quote" and then read a bit more and find another one. A big scatter brained I suppose.... His main point was two-folded I would say. First, that service is costly. It is not meant to be casual interest but intentional sacrifice. One of the good quotes is by Richard Foster about how service is often done for self glory and adventure and not for others or God's glory. TWISTED! "Two of the deadliest of our sins - sloth and pride - loathe serving." We either are seeking self glory, pride, or not doing anything at all, sloth. A warning that goes along with that stuck out to me the most: we'll only serve occasionally
or for self without disciplined service. It must be a regular part of our life, as a pedestrain washing someone's feet. God calls no one to idleness. Roasted! as my friend Andi would say.
The second part of this chapter which takes up most of it, is six motives for serving.
1)Obedience - "for the joy of the angels [even] lies only in obedience to God's will."
2)Gratitude - consider what great things God has done for you
3)Gladness - "something is wrong if you can't serve the Lord with gladness."
4)Forgiveness - because we are saved, forgivine and have life - we serve.
5)Humility - others first >Phil. 2:3
6)Love - "Love constrains us." African missionary
We are all gifted to serve with a spiritual gift - ALL the gifts are for service.
Serving is hard but we do it not in our own strength but with His energy >Col. 1:29.
It comes out of worship.
Be filled...
Worship....
Serve...

Choose Life With Your Mind
Has your brain ever wanted to not think?
Your mind wanted to stop churning for a split second?
Life would not be life without its choices - but what would
life be like without anxious thoughts - or any form of pride?
"If then you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth. For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. When Christ who is your life appears, then you also will appear with Him in glory." Colossians 3:1-4
Perhaps life is all about one choice - setting your mind on the eternal, weighty and valuable things. Only after we have been brought back into life can we live this out but oh how often we forget the very life that lives within us..."but Me you have forgotten, declares the Lord GOD." Ezekiel 22:12b
"Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time He may exalt you, casting all your anxieties on Him, because He cares for you. Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. Resist him, firm in your faith" 1 Peter 5:6-9a
Do not forget Me....
Humble yourself....
By casting all your anxieties on Me....
Set your minds on Christ, who is your life....

"The more I seek You, the more I find You.
The more I find You, the more I love You.
I want to sit at Your feet, drink from the cup in Your hand
Lay back against You and breathe, feel Your heartbeat.
This love is so deep, its more than I can stand.
I melt in Your peace, its overwhelming."
-The More I Seek You, Kari Jobe
"Such was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the LORD. And when I saw it, I fell on my face, and I heard the voice of one speaking....and I sat where they were dwelling. And I sat there overwhelmed among them seven days." Ezekiel 1:28b; 2:15b
To feel, not a false fixing emotion,
but the very real revelation of the Messiah.
What is keeping my heart from feeling His beat?
The more I find You, the more I love You.
I want to sit at Your feet, drink from the cup in Your hand
Lay back against You and breathe, feel Your heartbeat.

do i know?
"You make known to me the path of life;
in Your presence there is fullness of joy;
at Your right hand are pleasure forevermore."
Psalm 16:11
Grant me eyes to see the path of life.
Show me joy in Your presence, LORD.
Grant me joy that fills behind my mind can wonder.
Show me pleasures at Your right hand.
I have been shown eternal life.
I don't have to waste my life on the world's definition of success.
Do I feast on what is before me?
Have I tasted that the Lord is good?
Pray. And then pray again. And then pray somemore.
