A New Place

I have taken steps today that will propel me further into the presence of God. I feel that I am on the tips of my toes and leaning all the way forward off of an enormous cliff. Just a little further and I will leap into the never-ending glory and power that is the Lord. Just one more step and I will leave everything that was behind me and let myself go in His presence. I know that my life is about to drastically change and I am looking to see how the Father will lead me into the new things of life and the secret places of the Most High.

I crave the relationship with God that Paul had. The nearness to Jehovah that Moses experienced. The miracles that Peter performed. The devotion and love that David had. Yet, I realize that I cannot be these men. I can only be Zebulon Parker. I must seek my own relationship with Jesus Christ. I cannot rely on any other person to make me holy. I can't ride on anyone's anointing but my own. My life must be lived and sacrificed by me.

Thank you Father for your endless mercies and grace. Without them I would forever dead. Thank you for your sacrifice. I love you.
