The kingdom of God is within you. We shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
How wonderful it is when God becomes our primary focus on everything! How necessary it is to lay down everything at His feet. It doesn't happen without a fight. My natural tendencies are to grasp and keep, to hold tightly, to tell God " this is what i want, i think it is good, give it to me, i am waiting " How foolish is this thought and way. We must be humbly give our desires up to God. He's thoughts are not our thoughts nor our ways His. Trust the Lord, and lean not on your own understanding.
Everyday will begin the battle,
But we never can prove the delights of His love
Until all on the altar we lay;
For the favor He shows, for the joy He bestows,
Are for them who will trust and obey.
