The deep conviction hitting me is that our real center must be Christ Himself.
Everything else is just a way to posture ourselves for such an encounter
(but can also distract from our need for that).
MIC Check
Today’s Most Important Challenge is…
- Letting go of my hard heart
- So I can receive a new one
- Of compassion, grace & intimacy
- Because God is jealous for me
Yahweh Approach Memo
Continued from Handed
I am… horrified.
The rain has washed
The scales
Of self-righteous judgment
Of others
From my eyes
And I see
A black hole
Where my heart should be
I look to My Father.
I cry out:
“Father
Take this heart
Away from me!”
I offer Him
All the gold
That rained on me
To purchase a new one
My Father smiles grimly.
And says:
“That’s not how this works”
He breathes on me
And impossibly…
The black hole collapses
To be continued
Reflection
I feel…
- Hollow
- Swallowed by the darkness
- Convicted
- Enriched
- Worthless
Scripture
“March around the city with all your men of war once a day for six days. Have seven priests carry shofars in front of the ark. On the seventh day, march around the city seven times, with the priests blowing the shofars. When you hear the blare of the shofars, have all the people shout with a mighty shout of joy! Then the walls of the city will collapse before your eyes, and your whole army must charge straight in!“
So Joshua son of Nun summoned the priests and instructed them: “Take up the ark of the covenant, and have seven priests carry seven shofars in front of the ark of Yahweh.”
And to the people he said, “Forward! March around the city and set an advance guard of armed men to march ahead of the ark of Yahweh.”
Joshua 6:3-7 TPT
