"in these bodies we will live
in these bodies we will die
where you invest your love
you invest your life."

aren't they precious? i love teaching dance.

i have been reading through isaiah lately.
mmmm... soo. good. so. goood!

[isaiah54:13]
no weapon formed against you will prevail
and you will refute every tongue that accuses you
this is the heritage of the servants of the Lord


[isaiah 55:9]
as the heavens are higher than the earth
so are my ways higher than your ways
and my thoughts higher than your thoughts.

amen and thank you, Jesus!

"you are the blood over the door of my heart
what pain you spared me from, how could i know it all"
[bethanydillon]

i love the imagery in that song ^^
like in the passover in the book of exodus, the lamb's blood over the israelites door caused the spirit of death to literally pass over their houses and spare their first born sons from death. and Jesus [the Lamb of God]'s blood over the "door of my heart" causes so much to passover and save me from eternal death. Jesus, thank you for being my precious lamb.

another thought on that is the fact that Jesus blood is over the door of my heart and everything that passes through that door directly affects Him.

feeding the flesh causes it to thrive.
feeding the spirit causes it to thrive.

it's easy to feed the flesh. but it constantly wants more and leaves you feeling empty.
it's harder sometimes to "feed" the spirit but it leaves you feeling full to bursting with joy and peace. spending time with Jesus always leaves me bursting and longing to never have to be distracted again from just being in His presence. when i get to go home and be with Him forever. this is not our home.

"Awake my soul, awake my soul
for you were made to meet your Maker"
