I was talking to a friend of mine tonight, one that I did summer staff with this summer. And we were discussing how even though we know the truth and know God intimately, we still doubt his power and majesty. How we often love him conditionally while he always loves us unconditionally. And then when he comes through for us in the clutch we praise and worship him and then we wait for the next time he comes though big. When in reality he is always coming through big for us. We need to put our selfishness aside and simple trust and love in him.
After that conversation I spent some time listening to a song that really speaks to how desperate I often am for the Lord, whether or not I live like it or not. The song is "Set a Fire" and on youtube a great version is the one by Will Reagan & united Pursuit Band. At Summer staff we sang this song several times and it was awesome. It's simplicity but yet it's powerful lyrics. I believe the lyrics speak to how we all feel, whether or not we realize it. And if we just lived this desperate for the Lord, I can only imagine how much more Godly our lives would look.

Love y'all,
