SHORT AND SWEET.
TODAY WAS SPENT BASKING IN THE SUNSHINE, WHILE DEVOURING THE WORD OF THE LORD OUT OF THE MOUTH OF HEIDI BAKER. THOUGH MOST OF HER SPEAKING, OR SERMONS, ARE A JUMBLED BEAUTY OF SPIRIT AND PRAYERS, I ALWAYS LEAVE FILLED WITH ABOUNDING JOY. SHE INSPIRES ME TO LIVE SIMPLY IN THE FLESH AND EXTRAVAGANTLY IN THE SPIRIT. TO MAKE OUR HEAVENLY PAPA BEAR THE FOCUS OF MY HEART. MY EYES. MY SPIRIT. MY FLESH. I CAN HONESTLY SAY THAT IS QUITE DIFFICULT FOR MY LITTLE BRAIN TO COMPREHEND. THE SOUL FOCUS? MY MIND CONSTANTLY DESIRES TO PLEASE EVERYBODY. TO FULFILL EVERY EXPECTATION PLACED UPON ME, AND IF IT CAN'T BE FULFILLED, TO LET DOWN PEOPLE IN THE SINCEREST, LEAST PAINFUL WAY POSSIBLE. I BECOME SO ENTANGLED IN PLEASING THE FLESH, HEART, AND SPIRIT OF OTHERS, THAT I COMPLETELY LOSE TRACK OF PLEASING THE ONE WHO CREATED ME. THIS IS WHERE I AM STEPPING FORWARD. REPLACING MY EYES WITH DOVE'S EYES. STARING STRAIGHT AHEAD AT THE KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS. HIS WILL BE DONE. HIS LOVE ENCOMPASS. HIS LOVE IS PERFECT. HIS LOVE IS FEARLESS. HIS LOVE WILL COMPLETE AND REPAIR EVERY AREA OF MY LIFE WITHOUT ME EVEN REALIZING IT. TUNNEL VISION YALL. I SEE THE PRIZE. I AM WILLING TO LET GO OF PLEASING MY FAMILY. I AM WILLING TO LET GO OF PLEASING MY BOYFRIEND. I AM WILLING TO LET GO OF PLEASING MY FRIENDS. BECAUSE I KNOW THAT PRESSING INTO THE LORD, 100%, WILL PLEASE THOSE WHO TRULY CARE ABOUT ME. WHO LOVE ME. WHO SEE WHAT MY HEART SEES. I AM CLOTHING MYSELF IN HIM. DRENCHING MYSELF IN LOVE. HE IS FIRST. HE IS FOREMOST. HE IS WHO HE IS.
BAM MUDDA TRUCKA!
