The More I Seek You - Kari Jobe
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 heart beat
This love is so deep, its more than I can stand
I melt in Your peace, its overwhelming
I love when I get to hear amazing music and lyrics. To be able to turn on the radio and be uplifted by positive and encouraging music. Which is why I love this song from Kari Jobe, The More I Seek You. What a great way to enter into our quiet time with these lyrics. I want to sit at Your feet drink from the cup in Your hand. Lay back against You and breathe...The more I seek You, the more I find You.
I wanted to start this blogging challenge to keep a daily check on my quiet time with God and to have others be able to join in and embrace their quiet time as well. I want to be able to post inspirational thought and scriptures for anyone out there.
Starting at the beginning. I want to start with an invitation. Inviting God into my quiet time and presence.
So, here's my invitation I created...
To: My Father, God
For: To dedicate time together to reflect and listen.
When: Daily
Where: My Heart
Why: To enhance our relationship
What do I need to bring: my Bible, journal, pen, coffee/tea,
listening ears, a open heart and mind.
So, today I was flipping through my Bible and I stumbled once again on reading Psalm 139. I've read this several times, but it's always inspirational every time I read this.
I am fearfully and wonderfully made. What if we just paused a minute to really listen and comprehend those words that are told to us. In just a small sentence there is so much wisdom.
Psalm 139:14 (KJV) I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvelous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.
Psalm 139:14 (NLT) Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex!
Your workmanship is marvelous—how well I know it.
Reflection time
To know that God created every part of me for a purpose. He knows my name.
Which reminds me of another song from Francessa Battistelli. This is probably my favorite verse.
I'm not meant to just stay quiet
I'm meant to be a lion
I'll roar beyond a song
With every moment that I've got
True to who You are
You saw my heart
and made
Something out of nothing
I am created for a purpose. The purpose to spread the good news of Christ and to tell the world about the amazing relationship that is out there. I love to be able to share this through Christian skits and music. It's a huge passion of mine. This stretches me beyond my personal comfort zone and challenges me each and every time I can do this.
So not only are we fearfully and wonderfully made, but He also knows our name.
What do you enjoy about your quiet time each day?
How can we support each other in having our quiet time each day with our God?
Grace and Peace,
