In Pursuit

The Good News Today Is...we have many ways to pursue God. I found this review of Anne Lotz Graham's Book; Pursuing More of Jesus on the Christianity.com website. It gave me a lot to think about as I go through my day today. It made me realize that I often live and I am comfortable with, leaving Jesus in the background. Here are the bullet points - I think I will post them somewhere I can't ignore them, so I remember Jesus throughout the day.
  • Go for the maximum, not the minimum.
  • Pursue more of His voice in your ear.
  • Pursue more of His tears on your face.
  • Pursue more of His praise on your lips.
  • Pursue more of His death in your life.
  • Pursue more of His dirt on your hands.
  • Pursue more of His hope in your grief.
  • Pursue more of His fruit in your service.
  • Pursue more of His love in your home.
  • Pursue more of His courage in your convictions.
  • Pursue more of His nearness in your loneliness.
  • Pursue more of His answers to your prayers.
  • Pursue more of His glory on your knees.
Truly those who seek shall find...those who pursue will be blessed. Have a blessed day!
