Exodus 33 & 34; Psalm 16; Acts 9; James 1

Receiver to Giver.......I'm a taker or a shove in your facer....to in soft hearted obedience become different....

So all you said to Moses on the mountain is...?? the NEW covenant that Jesus brought covers all of it.....this book , Falling for God I'm reading ...asking us to come face to face w/You, we can now, in Christ yearn to, actually be in community with You.
It's too good to know....and in reading James KNOWING it and allowing IT to change me are what's next.
I am so scared to live naked and vulnerable in Your protection and yet to think of doing otherwise is frightening in whole other ways.....so I write here to encourage myself....crap...JUST DO IT I hear....
Psalm 16: 7 I will praise the LORD, who counsels me;
even at night my heart instructs me.
8 I have set the LORD always before me.

Because he is at my right hand,
I will not be shaken.
9 Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices;

my body also will rest secure,
10 because you will not abandon me to the grave,

nor will you let your Holy One see decay.
11 You have made known to me the path of life;

you will fill me with joy in your presence,
with eternal pleasures at your right hand.

I want it easy....I who lives a life of such comfort as to be ridiculous wants THIS life to be, continue to BE easy....relationships to BE easy......
