I Can't Escape
I can't escape the presence of God today. I have so much "work" to do having just returned from camp...but I can't get to it. I've been praying, worshipping and reading God's word and I just want to stay here. There is nothing like resting in the presence of God. There's no escape.
This song from United is running through my heart...
"What can I say? What can I do, but offer this heart oh God completely to you?
So I'll stand with arms high and heart abandoned
In awe of the one who gave it all
So I'll stand my soul Lord to you surrendered
All I am is yours
(The Stand; Hillsong United, United We Stand)
Hebrews 2:1-4
"We must pay more careful attention, therefore, to what we have heard, so that we do not drift away. For if the message spoken by angels was binding, and every violation and disobedience received it's just punishment, HOW SHALL WE ESCAPE if we ignore such a great salvation? This salvation, which was first announced by the Lord, was confirmed to us by those who heard him. God also testified to it by signs, wonders and various miracles, and gifts of the Holy Spirit distributed according to his will."
I don't know about you, but I don't want to escape God's presence! What has he shown YOU today as you spent time with him? Don't just walk away from your spiritual experiences and think it's over. Camp may be over, but his presence is inescapable. Remain and REVOLVE! Keep the TV off, get rid of your secular music that doesn't glorify God, and chase after God.
