Today it is hard to express my thought but here goes: I want to be full of God, filled with God, and fulfilling all that He desires for me to do. 


A Desire To Live For God

Full of life with my soul on fire,

Running after You to do all You desire.

This is the way I want to be.

A life so changed people cant help but see You in me.

I don't want to be just an outward show.

I want Your ways deep inside me to grow.

I want to become more like You.

Lord saturate me through and through.

From You Lord I don't want to be set free.

Your servant is all I want to be.


Fizzies

As a child I liked fizzies they were round flat disk that came in different colors and flavors. You drop the in water and the would fizzle and make you water into what ever color it was and what ever flavor it was. Sometimes I would skip the water and put it in my mouth and it would fizzle and foam there. One day I happen to come across an Alka-Seltzer. It was a round flat disk, I admit it didn't have much of a color so I thought maybe it was lemon. At the time I liked the taste of  lemon especially lemon hostess cupcakes. I was in the mood to watch a fizzy do it's thing in water so I dropped it in. About the foil package the Alka-Seltzer came in I couldn't read and because this was bigger that a regular fizzy I thought it was just new, bigger, better, improved fizzies with a new wrapper. Well after the fun of watching it do it's thing in water I took a big swallow. I thought yuck! I was really disappointed, after that I kept to the small fizzies at least I knew they were good. You know to this day I don't like Alka-Seltzer. Sometimes I question my Christian walk. Am I like the Alka-Seltzer all the outward appearance and characteristics of a Christian, yet not really one? It's easy to disguise your self as a Christian just be real sweet, nice, and good. Wear things and fix your self up to look modest and pretty, wholesome and good. Say all the right things, do random acts of kindness. But I say Yuck! That is not the real thing it is empty. I want to truly belong to God. I want to be like Him. I want my life to be changed, not just on the outside but totally, period, inside and out. I want to be so saturated with God, Jesus, and The Holy Spirit that it truly is no longer I that lives but Christ who lives in me! I not only want my life changed but I want others lives changed too! I want to be all that God intends for me to be.

Woe to you Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like white washed tombs which indeed appear beautiful outwardly, but inside are full of dead men's bone and all uncleanness. Matthew 23:27,   Inasmuch as these people draw near with their mouths and honor Me with their lips, but have removed their hearts far from Me, and their fear toward Me is taught by the commandment of men, Isaiah 29:13, I know whom I have believed and am persuaded that He is able to keep what I have committed to Him against that Day. Hold fast to the pattern of sound words which you have heard from me, in faith and love which are in Christ Jesus. That good thing which was committed to you, keep by the Holy Spirit who dwells in us. 2 Timothy 1:12-14 All that the Father gives Me will come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I will by no means cast out. John 6:37
