A call the intimacy with the living God inside of you. The kingdom is within you. Everything that God could give you, He has already given it to you in Jesus. "It is finished." I have watched a pattern occur in my life where I feel lack in some way and cry out for it, as if it needed to be sent by mail from some place far far away, the kingdom is inside me. God is near, so very near. So there is this incredible beautiful tension of discover the kingdom, that is within us. Our bellies are full in Jesus, yet there exists this incredible groan for more that escapes my lips regularly from some deep unseen place. How do we be satisfied and hungry at the same time? I am chewing on this one, We hunger for the manifestation of what we know to be true and hidden with Jesus, who is within us, waiting to be revealed in increasing measure. So I need only meditate on the fullness in Jesus within me, and I will be satisfied. I've noticed that even as I am aware of this fullness I can feel it and it releases His Presence. Let this year be marked with this intimacy. We are not lacking, but complete in Christ Jesus. As I have heard quoted so often here, "God hides things for us, not from us" like the proverb that says, "It is the glory of God to conceal a matter, but the glory of kings to search a matter out"
The more I sit, embrace and delight in the fullness of God in me, the more I discover about Him and about who I am in Him, and watch the overflow of Him released. I love you Jesus.
