Awakening

As I sit here at 1am, listening to to the song Awaking from the Passion cd, I find myself...aware.

Aware of a problem in this stale heart of mine....

This heart, a heart that I've promised to my Lord many times before, has filled itself with everything but a passion for my God, my Savior - at least for awhile now.

And when I finally realize it? I Keep myself even busier...then I don't have to think about how little I think about/depend on God in my daily routine.

No longer Satan. My soul is awakening again, this soul knows that meaning in this life is much larger than what I can try to make it....

This my awakening. I am a child of God. I haven't loved my Father - I've treated him as if His unconditional love warrants apathy...when the complete and total opposite should be the case! My passion, heart, and love should overflow towards He that gave me all of the blessings I have in this life (and even if I had nothing but the gift of Salvation - I have more than I can ever repay or appreciate).


My blog title: The Fire Within - may that once again be the case.


Father, I am a prodigal. I have known the truth, and like Adam, hidden from it - ashamed. I have sought to make life mine - it isn't...and I know that I never want it to be...change this heart to make this life Yours...Yours. Renew my love, passion, faith, and heart. May it beat for You.
