Desperation and Growth

Desperation and Growth.

They go hand and hand, right? When you realize your desperation for Jesus-- you grow. You grow closer to Him, you grow to fall at His feet more often, you grow to call on His name--you simply grow.

I looked down at these old posts and threads and I saw my desperation for Jesus. My absolute necessity to be His. For my life to be in HIS hands and not my own. I was desperate for Him--and I still am.

His love is perfect.

And I want crave it.

My heart's desire is to constantly be desperate for Him and to constantly be growing closer to who He was. I don't ever want to give up, and I don't ever want to forget His name.

I forever want His name pressed against my lips.
To be desperate for Him.
To be His reflection.
To be His name in the midst of silence.
To be His light in the pitch black world.
To be Him.
I forever want to grow.

Part of growing is loosing all the distractions. To rid yourself of anything but His love. If it distracts you from growing in your relationship with Jesus-- it's gotta go.

Cut it off.
Get rid of it.
Throw it out.
Run.
Leave it be.
It's just gotta go.

That simple.

Love you all, and may you never ever quite growing.
