So, last night at Ruined (the new young adults group i'm attending) i asked God during worship to please take from me everything but Him. Up until now i've been praying a feeble little prayer of "i want to want You more than anything, but i'm not sure i'm there yet. please change my heart." Well, i think He has. Examining my heart in this moment i can say that He's better and more important than anything, than my family, than my amazing friends, than my future plans and whether they come to fruition or not, that if all those things were to burn up and blow away in the wind that i'd be ok, as long as i were able to know my Jesus more.
Moments like these are fleeting for me because i cling so ravenously to other lovers.
But last night i asked Him honestly to take everything from me as long as i can know Him more and love Him better.
I'm overwhelmed that he answered my initial prayer and changed my heart. [He's such a magician!] And i'm also kind of scared. I know He answers prayers, and as much as i'm WILLING to have everything taken from me, i hope He doesn't have to.
