Wrong Again
I don’t know if you have ever noticed, but I have these little categories on the right side of this page. (You know, like a billion other bloggers.)
And one of my categories is entitled “My Pursuit of God”.
And I think I have just been realizing something.
I have had that all wrong.
Mislabeled really.
This whole time
it has
never
been about my pursuit of God.
It has
always
been about God’s pursuit of me.
There I go again – making it all about me.
Because I can be such an idiot sometimes
when it comes to
perspective.
This story,
my life,
has been entirely a picture of
God’s relentless pursuit of me.
His constant chasing after
my heart.
(All of it.)
I’ve been thinking I have been trying to find God
when all along
He has already found me.
God is pursuing me.
I’ve had it all wrong
all along.

If I have learned nothing else from this journey we’ve been on for the last year and half (and i’ve learned sooo much more than just one thing, by the way) it’s been that God IS the pursuer of my heart.
And He wants all of it. Every single corner of it.
Thanks for sharing this. It reminds me.

Now you're talking. When you come to the point that you realize that your sinful bad self would in no way pursue God but that it MUST be that HE has come after you and changed you then it all falls into place perspective wise. You will probably be reading a new bible from now on and say oh how could I have missed this all along! Enjoy and may all the glory be to GOD!!!

I've mislabeled it again. It's not about me. http://bit.ly/aP6Nzp

I have chills. This is so true. Beautifully stated. Lump in my throat.
