What compels you?

Sometimes I sit and think about the strangest things. I was sitting in my living room listening to Hillsong with my infant son in my arms falling asleep and I thought to myself what compels me? What in life makes me get up every morning and live this thing called life? I got a little misty eyed as I listened to the words on the Hillsong DVD "you are my freedom Jesus you're the reason I'm kneeling again at your throne where would I be without You here in my life, here in my life." I want that to be what compels me everyday of my life. I want what Christ has done, the freedom that he so willingly paid the price for, that draws me to the throne of the Most High God. . . that to compel me in all I do.

It is true when I look back on my life thus far there are many things that are not that pleasant to think about but through it all His grace has been sufficient! I can honestly say that I am more in love with the Lord today then I ever have been in my life. Where would I be without Him? So very lost and desperate!

I want to have the love that He has for me for all those I meet. I want the things that break His heart to break mine. I want to have the faith when I hear His voice to get out of the boat and look into His eyes and forget the waves around me. I want my son to grow up with an intimate love for Papa God, to heal the sick and raise the dead and that be norm in his life. I want to touch the world with the love of Christ.

I want to be compelled. . . . . what compels you. . . . . .
