Thought for the day

"God-thinking is for everyone that wants to go from where they are to another place, spiritually.

• Even if where you are is a very good place.
• Even if you are satisfied that you have obeyed God in your daily walk.
• Even if you are convinced that you are in line with God's Word in the way you live.
• Even if you have received the gift of the Holy Spirit.
• Even if you have laid hands on the sick and watched them be healed.
• Even if you have raised the dead.

As time goes on, you will find yourself in want for even a closer walk, more understanding, maybe a touch from God or answers to difficult questions.

• Even if you fully understand your place in Christ.
• Even if you realize you have been placed in the heavenlies.
• Even if you fully acknowledge that you are dead to sin.
• Even if you fully grasp all that Christ has done for you, all that the Father has done for you and all that the Holy Spirit is doing in you and through you, you want a deeper experience with God.

It's how God made us. He made us to ever seek Him, ever find Him, ever experience Him. None of us have reached a place where we know all of God. And because of this truth we seek moments with Him that help us to get from where we are to that other place or that next place."
