Sometimes i wish that I could somehow explain to people why i love this Jesus guy so much. To the people who haven't seen God and to the people who have. I just wish i could literally take my feelings out about him and share them.
If only i could give them a handful of how i felt about him they would understand. Lately i have been overwhelmed by how much i love Jesus. I wake up always wanting to know him more. I want to know every inch of him and it bothers me that i can't.
I wish that I had better words to explain to him how thankful I am that he gave me the Bible. If only I understood even a fraction of gods thoughts, I could give him better words to tell him how much I love him. Because I constantly feel like I can't explain it to him well enough.
How did I get so lucky to be able to believe in someone so loving and so amazing? Someone who is the embodiment of joy itself. Actually, he created joy itself. He is joy wrapped within even more unfathomable amounts of joy.That is just crazy to me.I haven't been able to wrap my brain around it lately. I am so undeserving. But i get to believe,see and know the most amazing father ever. It blows my mind.
I just wanted to say this because the reality is I can't give any of you a handful of my feelings to show you how amazing he is. The best I can do is try to tell you in the words I have been given that there is a creator who loves you, a creator who yearns for your heart, a creator who wants you to search for him, a creator who should be feared, a creator who should be worshiped, a creator who should be praised, a creator that you should bow before, a creator that you should lay down your sin for, a creator who is the embodiment of grace itself, a creator who loved you before you were capable of loving him, a creator that gave everything he had to you even though you may never give him anything.
For those of you who are believers stop analyzing and worrying and thinking for just one day, and just be with your creator. Just BE with him. As believers we sometimes forget that we have just as much growing to do as non-believers. BE with your creator. Turn everything else off and actually focus on his presence.His presence is there. Its all around you, but you have to listen. In 1 Kings 19:11 we read "And after the fire came a gentle whisper." God doesn't yell at us. He whispers because he is close to us.If you are close to someone, there is no need to yell.God is close to you, so if you can't hear him,maybe you aren't listening. Stop and listen to the tender whisper of his heart.
To the non believers:
I will never be able to fully explain to you how I know he's real. That is a question people ask me all the time as a christian. I just know. Yes, the scripture backs it up,but it is so much more than that. It's the unexplainable pull that I feel on my heart to tell people that I feel this way about my creator. I wish so badly that I could let you feel what I feel. I want others to have a relationship with him so badly because it is the best feeling in the world. I wish everyone could truly see God. You see, I cant fully explain how I know because I only know because I have truly seen God. I have felt God surround me and capture every part of my heart and connect it to his own forever. He chose me and I saw him.But I chose to see him. That is what has to happen with you, as well. After that there is no turning back. When you truly see God, you can never lose him. And that' something I have a hope in daily. I know that I will be with Jesus for forever one day.I just know. I believe and I have an unexplainable peace that in the end i will no longer be bound by sin, but I will live in eternity with my lord and savior. With a joy that cannot be imagined.
I will dance with the creator of dancing. I will praise Him while standing in His presence. I will feel my heart explode with a joy i didn't know existed. I will love the one who first loved. I will laugh with the man who orchestrated the complex laughter of each human. I will be at peace with the creator of comfort. I will be with the one who chose me over everything else. The one who has a love for me that I can never fully understand.
God chose you too,but you have to humble yourself before him to be able to see him. There' a reason that i feel so responsible and pulled to tell others about this. It' s not for me. It's because I love him so much more than I thought possible,and I want everyone else to experience how amazing HE is. I want him to be able to show you how much he loves you like he has shown me.
So just try to listen for a whisper. Even just for a moment. And see what he has for you.
