Turn Our Eyes Upon Jesus

God is calling me to know him like never before. The stakes seem higher and higher as the days go on. I MUST hear from Him and lead out of that. I am tired of good ideas. I want GOD ideas. I am tired of sicking man on stuff. I want to turn the spirit of God loose on stuff!!

There is a lot that the Lord is revealing to me these days (because I am spending time with Him like never before). More than I am ready to share...that's for sure. But, here is one thing that I AM ready to tell you.

I am tired of leading out of my own strength. I am able to admit that I have done too much of that over the years. I am sorry for that. I have repented. That is changing. Now. I want to lead out of God's strength. What is HE saying? As I will share this Sunday in my message, HE IS STILL SPEAKING!!! What is HE saying for me, my family and Capital Christian Fellowship. And what is He saying to you?

If I am hearing one thing right now, it is that I am to keep seeking the face of God. Keep striving to know the heart of God. Keep letting him hold me at his side and speak over me. Then, I will listen and do what HE says.

And as we do...as we seek him...as we turn our eyes upon Jesus...the things of this earth seem to grow strangely dim! I love this old song. God has put it in my spirit and I just keep singing it over and over again:

Turn your eyes upon Jesus,
Look full in His wonderful face,
And the things of earth will grow strangely dim,
In the light of His glory and grace.
