I struggle with maintaining the fervor and passion that a good podcast, or church service or Hillsong concert gives me. I’m too quick to look at the negatives or the unknowns and let go of His hand to try in vain and sandbag myself in from life’s risks. In reality that is the worst course of action to take.
Constantly, tirelessly, without pausing or ceasing we must come to Him and realize He is all we need to truly be content.
The cure to becoming jaded or forgetting what it’s like to be in His presence is to constantly work to be in His presence. Everyday, every second. This is harsh for me, I know what I must do but i don’t do it. Because I’m the focus of my life. What’s happened to me, how I’ve been affected, what it’s made me feel like. I use it to constantly excuse myself from rushing to God and putting Him squarely in the focal point of my life.
Because when He is the focus, there simply isn’t room for us to be.
