Are you looking for Jesus?

I Pray that this will be the cry of my heart.

But I do not account my life of any value nor as precious to myself, if only I may finish my course and the ministry that I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God. Acts 20:24

With All I am

John Piper - Test Yourself

Jesus,

wake me up. wake me up to your discernment. wake me up to what YOU want, not what I THINK You want. Keep me away from the dreams of this world and what is considered the "perfect" life. Give me a passion for Your Name. Give me JOY when I suffer. Give me JOY when I carry Your Name. Jesus, remind me that my life is HIDDEN IN YOU, and none of me is suppose to be APART from You.

Jesus, wake me up to reality. Reality of LIFE and Death, everyday. Wake me up to the realness of sulfur and death of souls around me. Wake me up to the REALNESS of Your LOVE for me. To know that Your LOVE is better than life itself. Wake me up that if there is NO YOU in Heaven, there's no heaven at all.

I am guilty... no matter how small/or short lived the escape can be.

"All too often we look to entertainment and media, not for life-giving leisure, but for life-denying escape." Jonathan Dodson

Jesus.. help me discern choices that gives life to my soul and may You be my very rest from the world.

For what do I have If I don't have You, Jesus?
