Who You Are

 Heavenly Father,
   I am sitting here in your presence and glory, within your peace and stillness of your voice. God you are so wonderful and so majestic, but one of the things that just captivates me and makes me continue loving you, and wanting to know you more and more every single day, is that you are constantly telling me and the world that if you want to know what I am like-here is Jesus. If we want to know what you are like, you tell us that you are the one that had took and loved the woman who was caught in the act of adultery and who told her accusers "whoever has no sin, let them throw the first stone" and that you sent them away. If we want to know what you are like, God, you tell us that you were the one who went to the tax collector and who was seen as a traitor among the people. And when those would have thought that you would have given him a tongue lashing and called him out for what he was, instead, you told him "follow me because I have a plan for you and I am going to make something of your life." Father-you are screaming to us through your son, Jesus Christ and you are saying "if you want to know what I am like, know that I am so serious about your sin that it had to be dealt with through the most grizzly death possible. The best thing that the Romans had to offer, was death through crucifixion, but your sin is serious to me, that if you truly want to know what I am like, I played the devil and made him think that he was using his best weapon, and when I rose from the dead, I rendered that weapon useless." Father, I am so grateful that you have demonstrated who you are through your son, Jesus. You are not a far and distant God but you are Immanuel and you have came to be with us and to show us very clearly of who you are. You're the God who loves children and remind us that if we do not follow you, we cannot inherit the kingdom of God. You're the God who heals the blind. You're the God who heals the scandalist. And you're the God of absolute perfect righteousness. True and holy righteousness-not what we call righteousness, but what you call righteousness. Father, please move in my heart and allow me to be drawn to your son, Jesus Christ as you are screaming to us "This is who I am!" Move in my heart God. Show me your glory. Let me fall more and more in love with you and who you are. Mold me and transform me, God. Jesus, I thank you for loving me and that you were sent here to earth as form of a man to die for the sake of my sins. Thank you for dying on the cross for me. Let my heart be moved. In your precious and heavenly name I pray...AMEN.
