Finding a Deep and Wide Christmas Advent- Day 4th
We can have so much more than a meaningful Christmas. Jesus can form Himself in the Bethlehem of our hearts as surely as He grew up in the ancient city if we’ll own our complacency and ask God to turn it into holy hunger.
We are pilgrims, designed for more. In Him we can be satisfied without being settled, loved without being lazy, rest while ever reaching. If we get saved to sit down, we miss the delightful God-designed tension of living in pursuit of an inexhaustible and eternal Savior who satisfies us while creating a hunger for the only more that is forevermore. The blessing of a life transformed by Christ is never forced on settlers. It’s reserved for seekers. ~excerpted from Finding Deep and Wide, releasing January 2020
You will seek Me and find Me, when you seek Me with all of your heart (Jeremiah 29:13).
