“O God, I have tasted Thy goodness and it has both satisfied me and made me thirsty for more. I am painfully conscious of my need for further grace. I am ashamed of my lack of desire. O God, the triune God, I want to want Thee; I long to be filled with longing; I thirst to be made more thirsty still. Show my Thy glory, I pray Thee, that I may know Thee indeed. Begin in mercy a new work of love within me. Say to my soul, ‘Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away.’ Then give me the grace to rise and follow Thee up from this misty lowland where I have wandered so long. In Jesus’ name, Amen.”
-A.W. Tozer, The Pursuit of God
Stray Thoughts 
Loved this, Barbara. It describes me right now. Thank you for posting it.
You’re very welcome — glad it ministered to you.
It makes you think. Johnny and I were just discussing this. He served in the Navy during peace time, and he often thinks that he is NOT a vet.
It describes the sentiment in my recent prayers. Thank you for sharing.
