and though i've been mistaken on this or that point; that light is God

my utmost for his highest:

july 13 --

"My vision of God is dependent upon the condition of my character. My character determines whether or not truth can be revealed to me. Before i can say, 'I saw the Lord', there must be something in my character that conforms to the likeness of God. Until I am born again and really begin to see the kingdom of God, I only see from the perspective of my own biases. What I need is God's surgical procedure--His use of external circumstances to bring about internal purification.
Your priorities must be God first, God second, and God third, until you life is continually face to face with God and no one else is taken into account whatsoever. Your prayer will then be, 'in all the world there is no one but You, dear God; there is no one but You.'"

amen.

i want You, Jesus.
in all i dream of and desire,
what i truly want is You.
