Awakening Love!

I was thinking about this verse today. It's so powerful and moving and I think it bears the thoughts of what God thinks.

“I adjure you, O daughters of Jerusalem, by the gazelles or the does of the field, that you not stir up or awaken love until it pleases.” - Song of Songs 2:7 ESV
What does that mean? "awaken love"? Is it sleeping? In the act of being in love, we awaken it with our thoughts and our actions. We pursue the actions of demonstration of being in love and we look at how we are to pursue our lover.

Sometime's we are so arrogant and uncomprehensive about what were doing with the opposite sex, that we break into a relationship without even thinking. I remember when I was a kid and I read that book, "I Kissed Dating Goodbye", I hated it. Everyone in my youth group did too. We had some dude, telling us that we weren't suppose to have gf/bf's. What the heck? Who are you dude? What have you done to tell me that I can't shop around? I hated it.

It's funny though now, I think about that book and how God has predestined everyone of us to be in love with him, and when the time comes, to be able to awaken love with someone else, and have a healthy, pure and honest relationship together towards him. Some don't believe that. Some think it's okay to open that heart and let someone swoon in really quick and it be okay.

I'm one of those people. I have had my heart taken by girl's and in return some have stepped on it. Forgiveness was a key factor in all of this, but I bet you anything that if I had never awakened that love.

Let love be awakened by the Father and choose to have a pure and Holy heart towards God.

What if?

Ok, so what if while we were worshiping God, he was in service crying with us? What is our worship to him, was a gift to him? This is what is changing my experience with worship. The way that I know worship, is not the way God see's it. It's not about me. It's about his love for me. Our love together.

WOW. That just happened. My perspective is never what I see it.
My destiny is so far beyone what I can see or comprehend. It makes me almost cry just thinking about it.

YAY GOD!

Ahh...New Season...

New Month.
New Year.
New Season.

Wow. God is so refreshing. It's what I have been feeling in my spirit lately. Like he's taking out hearts and fixing them and replacing them with love and unity. I'm very excited for more things to come!

I have been seeing a lot of old freinds from the past come into new heights with the Lord. I encourage all of you to be praying at this time for those of you who haven't got a chance to see your freinds come to fullness of there destiny or have swayed from the Lord. It's there time. A time for harvest, a time for replenishment and worship.

Hero

I wrote this song during a difficult time, and I had to stick to my guns, when I sang it.
This song was dedicated to my Dad. He will always be..

"Captain Fantastic Faster Than Superman Spiderman Batman Wolverine Hulk And The Flash Combined"


Hope you like it.

Just Be REAL!

This week there has been a little uproar in my spirit! How difficult is it to love those, that you know aren't who they seem? In short, I can not be the same person when I see the unecessary drama that unfolds from silly presuming ideas! As a song writer and worshiper, sometimes hte hardest thing, is when someone misinterprets a song or a lyric.

I hate when I believe things to be okay and that people see you and believe that you are this person who is the complete opposite of who you really are. Jesus has this problem with the Pharisees. They thought he was sorcerer and a deciever. Reality CHECK: He was a lover of people and of his father. How harsh is that? Let me put it into scripture:

Matthew 7:1-6
Be not judges of others, and you will not be judged. 2 For as you have been judging, so you will be judged, and with your measure will it be measured to you. 3 And why do you take note of the grain of dust in your brother's eye, but take no note of the bit of wood which is in your eye? 4 Or how will you say to your brother, Let me take out the grain of dust from your eye, when you yourself have a bit of wood in your eye? 5 You false one, first take out the bit of wood from your eye, then will you see clearly to take out the grain of dust from your brother's eye. 6 Do not give that which is holy to the dogs, or put your jewels before pigs, for fear that they will be crushed under foot by the pigs whose attack will then be made against you.

Wow. That hurts huh? I feel so heavy hearted when I know that I have done this. Made a judgement or accusation against someone for being the way they are, when they truly are not. A lot of my friends go through this. They look diffrent and appear so diffrent to other people, and in reality are so amazing and full of love and purpose.

Reach your destiny freinds, and be full of love and be real with your freinds, your lover's and yourself.

The Sound of Fire and Rain

It all starts with love. I can't see the kingdom till I understand love. It won't rain until it's understood....Check it out.

1 Corinthians 13:1-13
1 I make use of the tongues of men and of angels, and have not love, I am like sounding brass, or a loud-tongued bell. 2 And if I have a prophet's power, and have knowledge of all secret things; and if I have all faith, by which mountains may be moved from their place, but have not love, I am nothing. 3 And if I give all my goods to the poor, and if I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it is of no profit to me. 4 Love is never tired of waiting; love is kind; love has no envy; love has no high opinion of itself, love has no pride; 5 Love's ways are ever fair, it takes no thought for itself; it is not quickly made angry, it takes no account of evil; 6 It takes no pleasure in wrongdoing, but has joy in what is true; 7 Love has the power of undergoing all things, having faith in all things, hoping all things. 8 Though the prophet's word may come to an end, tongues come to nothing, and knowledge have no more value, love has no end. 9 For our knowledge is only in part, and the prophet's word gives only a part of what is true: 10 But when that which is complete is come, then that which is in part will be no longer necessary. 11 When I was a child, I made use of a child's language, I had a child's feelings and a child's thoughts: now that I am a man, I have put away the things of a child. 12 For now we see things in a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now my knowledge is in part; then it will be complete, even as God's knowledge of me. 13 But now we still have faith, hope, love, these three; and the greatest of these is love.

I have been stuck in this verse for a little while. It's very awesome and real.
