Seeking God on the Amazon
TweetToday we went on the Amazon River. Very cool experience. We actually got off the boat & went swimming for a bit.
I spent some time sitting & praying while people were swimming. One of my slogans for seeking God is: Never satisfied, ever grateful, never take offense. I never want to be satisfied in my pursuit of God, because I think there is always more to be had, more intimacy to discover, more mysteries to be revealed, more love to be experienced, more depth to uncover. So I never want to become complacent. I want my heart to long for God & I intentionally seek to cultivate that longing. But, if you are always longing & not ever grateful you will be in danger of grumbling, &
complaining. Your heart will grow hard.
Never satisfied. Ever grateful. Never take offense. When you seek hard after God & you get a gentle sense of His presence & someone else gets a download from Heaven it is easy to take offense. So I have determined not to take offense.
This has been my slogan for the week, once again. It continues to serve me well on my spiritual journey.
God’s best to you, friends. Much love. From the Amazon – Rob
