Nothing brings me greater purpose that this truth.
Lord make this my reality:
Jeremiah 9:
23Thus says the Lord: Let not the wise and skillful person glory and boast in his wisdom and skill; let not the mighty and powerful person glory and boast in his strength and power; let not the person who is rich [in physical gratification and earthly wealth] glory and boast in his [temporal satisfactions and earthly] riches;
24But let him who glories glory in this: that he understands and knows Me [personally and practically, directly discerning and recognizing My character], that I am the Lord, Who practices loving-kindness, judgment, and righteousness in the earth, for in these things I delight, says the Lord.
Randy Pope says that a simple definition of glory is satisfaction... I will stretch that to completeness. Wholeness. This "glory" leads to our living as He designed us to be. We were made to be found in Him- only then can we rest.
He has recently peeled away my anxious doubting heart by piercing it with His Word, and for that I am thankful. I am thankful for His calling me by name (Isaiah 43) and pursuing my heart even when I think I want nothing to do with it... When I am faithless, He's faithful (2 Timothy 2).

Amazing love,
now what else shall I need
Your name brings life,
it's more than the air I breathe
Verse 2:
My world has changed,
when Your life You gave for me
My purpose found
and all that You want for me
PreChorus 1:
And I've found myself in You, Lord
And I've found myself in You
PreChorus 2:
And I've found myself in You, Jesus
And I've found myself in You, Lord
Chorus:
So take me to a place
where I can see You face to face
and all I wanna do, all I wanna do
is worship You
So take me to a place
where I can see You face to face
and all I wanna do, all I wanna do
is worship You
