Sometimes we just don't get it.

Zech. 12:8 On that day the LORD will shield those who live in Jerusalem, so that the feeblest among them will be like David, and the house of David will be like God, like the Angel of the LORD going before them.

God I pray that you will pour out your spirit on us. Not that we are worthy….but just because you deserve Glory. God thank you for going before us…thank you for preparing the way in Austin, and we hope that as we are consumed in the fire of passion for you…that we turn it outward and ALL will know that you are not only OUR God, but THEIR God. Let us be your hands and feet. God, I thought of the cold chill this morning and the ones who are out there, who woke up as this front blew through….with no blankets….and only the clothes they had on. Provide for them….through someone who claims the name of Christ.

1 Peter 6 In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief in all kinds of trials. 7These have come so that your faith—of greater worth than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire—may be proved genuine and may result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed.

Are we so dull…the bible clearly states our purpose on this earth, over and over…..Glorify God. I read it in James 5 yesterday, and I read it in 1 Peter today. I wonder if James had sent Peter a text message informing him what he was going to write on the previous page of the bible…and he (Peter) should pick up where he (James) left off.

How can I do this today?

God I want to glorify you today…you are more than words can describe.
The world's a huge stockpile of God-wonders and God-thoughts. Nothing and no one comes close to you! I start talking about you, telling what I know, and quickly run out of words. (Psalm 40:5 Message)
