Lovesick for This Man...

A couple of things I really appreciate...

Number One: Eternity. To muse the day of the Son of God joining His beloved bride in holy matrimony; when the agonizing distance and sin that this world is drenched in is no longer to be found.  I find myself daydreaming of the age when all things will be made new. (SIDE NOTE: I am awe-stuck by architecture. Always have been.) When a large beautiful building catches my gaze, sometimes I compare it to the mansions that are being prepared right now in Heaven. And when I think on the weakness of the human frame, I revel in the little knowledge I have concerning the resurrected body and it's boundless abilities. The thoughts of these things excite me, but do you know what causes the breath to catch in my chest? It's this: the thought of actually being with Jesus. Okay, let's throw away our Sunday school mentality for just a minute. One day we will literally walk with this Man. No longer will we speak words to the invisible Godhead, but rather in the company of the Throne Room, surrounded by all it's inhabitants. We will spend eternity under the constant revelation of His omniscience. Just think...the revelation of Jesus will only become better and better as eternity unfolds. Hallelujah!

I cannot wait to look into His eyes as we share a meal together. I long to feel His hands holding mine as He leads me in the dance of the divine. I'm getting chills just thinking about it.

Number Two: Poetic lyrics. I am captivated by an assembly of words that are woven together by intense beauty and piercing truth. Basically anything that will escort me into the Revelation of Jesus and His Kingdom, bring it on. With that said, the labor of Phil Wickham and Audra Lynn has been so precious to me in this season. Their lyrics are marinated in the tenderness of His heart and the power of His countenance. I delight in joining their lovesick cry for Him to be magnified. It's absolutely glorious.
