Revisting old themes

Tonight its my turn. My turn to share/teach at our House of Prayer. As some of my thoughts and themes in my life are reflected here, I’ve come back to the stories of my life. I’m thinking I’m gonna share on the intimacy of the Lord, unless of course He has another plan. This idea is at the crux of the matter of many lives. I believe that until we get intimate with the Lord, our identity cannot be fully known. And it is our identity that is forever our searching place or the thing that hold us back from what we’re called to. We say things like, “well I don’t know who I am yet, so how can I begin to know my calling.” or “what’s my calling?” or the ever increasing question of, “what am I here for?” I believe that all those questions can and will be answered in the practice of intimacy. Its in the most intimate places that we gain our identity in Christ. It is in the intimate places that our spirit is solidified within us, enabling us to go more places, do more things, and most important to reflect a truer picture of Christ. After all, the student becomes like the teacher! So as I prepare for tonight, I’m revisiting the themes of my life. The places that He has taken me in and through to teach me my identity, but not before spending simple times in the arms of my beloved! Oh the peace, joy, and love found in the arms of the One who loves me like no other!
