Intimacy

God has been speaking one word over me this entire year: Intimacy. It's for me, but I also believe He desires intimacy with all who call Him Lord. He desires deep relationships with His bride. He longs for us to include Him in every decision we make. In every conversation we have. Every minute of the day. What are our first thoughts when we wake up? Are they of Him? Oh Jesus, I pray You restore our hearts to our first love. I don't want to be like the church of Laodicea. I don't want to be lukewarm. I want to live a life worthy of the gospel. (Philippians 1:27). I want to be the same to all people, here I am, I'm Tina and I'm madly in love with my Jesus! I don't want to squash that down when I'm with unbelievers. I want to desire to read His word daily. I don't want to have the mentality of oh I have to read my bible, but rather I get to. What a privilege it is that we have such access to Gods word. I need to get that. There are an estimated 180 million people in the world without access to a bible in their own language. 180 million!

Years ago all I heard about was Revival. Revival of course is great. We need a spiritual awakening. It's often been said revival starts with you. With your own heart. So how is your heart? Is it in need of revival? I will leave you with some songs that speak to me of intimacy. I hope this post helps someone. I speak in love. I speak as one who has a long way to go still but one who desires everyone to come into a place of intimacy with Jesus.
