Are You Thirsty?

"Let any man turn to God in earnest, let him begin to exercise himself unto godliness, let him seek to develop his powers of spiritual receptivity by trust and obedience and humility, and the results will exceed anything he may have hoped in his leaner and weaker days.

         Any man who by repentance and a sincere return to God will break himself out of the mold in which he has been held, and will go to the bible for his spiritual standards, will be delighted with what he finds there...We will know Him in increasing degree as our receptivity becomes more perfect by faith and love and practice."

                                                                              ~A.W. Tozer, The Pursuit of God

  1. Thank you for posting this Lissie! God has been prompting me along those lines lately to get into the Word more and apply it to all of life, and spend more time with God. Good reminder :-)

  2. Me too! And I love that He is SO fulfilling--I feel like I'm drinking from a fire hydrant, and yet I always come away thirsty for more. Plus the more time I spend with Him, the more joy I have. It's pretty incredible :D
