i heart esty

Sponsor a Child in Jesus Name with Compassion
Save Children
O God, I have tasted Your goodness,
and it has both satisfied me
and made me thirsty for more.
I am painfully conscious of my need of further grace.
I am ashamed of my lack of desire.
O God, the Triune God,
I want to want You;
I long to be filled with longing;
I thirst to be made more thirsty still.
Show me Your glory, I pray,
so I may know You indeed.
Begin in mercy a new work of love within me…
Give me grace to rise
and follow You up from this misty lowland
where I have wandered so long.
In Jesus’ name. Amen.

A.W. Tozer, The Pursuit of God

I Would Gather Children

Some would gather money
Along the path of life
Some would gather roses,
And rest from worldly strife.

But I would gather children
From among the thorns of sin,
I would seek an ebony curl,
And a wide and toothless grin.

For money cannot enter
In that land of endless day
,And roses that are gathered
Soon will wilt along the way.

But oh, the laughing children
,As I cross the sunset sea,
And the gates swing wide to heaven
,I can take them in with me!

I saw what I saw....Sara Grovers

No Orphans in God...

God Loves Us...

“God wins us,
not by shouting, beating us up, or starving us into submission,
but by asking for an invitation to enter.

We are loved into surrender.
The more we accept that he operates out of love for us, the more we will entrust ourselves to him.

Fénelon expresses this truth beautifully: "God is not a spy looking to surprise you. He is not an enemy lurking in the shadows to hurt you. God is your Father who loves you, and wants to help you if you will but trust in His goodness."

- Warren, Kay Dangerous Surrender: What Happens When You Say Yes to God
