To Draw Near To God There's no doubt about it...this life is full of needs of one kind or another each day. We are humbled, often desperate, as we come to the Throne for the needs that we have as we pray. But in my simple heart I have come to believe that our greatest need is to seek God alone; To bow before the majesty of the God of the Universe and worship everyday at His throne. For then we take our eyes from the size of our problems and suddenly they're eclipsed by His face. Then we see the power that we need every hour as we look on the Author of grace. And when we make the choice to lift up our voice giving glory and all honor to the King, Then we see our fulfillment is always in Christ no matter what this life may bring. Just looking at God's holiness will strengthen our souls and change us every time we draw near, Till we want to be holy and set apart for His glory because we love this great God that we fear. For there on that throne lies everything we will need because the Lamb is also Counselor and Lord. He's the Ultimate Provider...our Encourager and Hope and the Healer who will leave us restored. The needs of the flesh and the circumstances of life point us higher to our greatest need of all; To draw near to God sitting high on His throne getting closer every time that we call.
