Always.

Can I be here forever? Here with you?

I've been down this road before.

As Zoe in Singapore comes together, I desire to come to a deeper understanding on the defination of eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.
John 17:3

I got to get back to where it all began
When I would wait for only You

It's been some journey. Plummeting my mind into my heart and trying to make it flesh. I'm sure that I've failed miserably, that I've fallen desperately short of anything resembling righteousness. But it was worth the ride.

I think I could recognise You. But I daren't be sure. I need to be careful.

Like a child I'll take You at Your word
As these mountains of doubt, they fade away
I'm longing to trust and love You more
So for me this is beautiful
A brand new thought, and a brand new world
Can I stay here forever here with You?

To understand thirst and hunger in this context, to be able to live my life aligned with the Spirit, to be unperturbed by the desire to justify myself, to be me, bring me to my knees.

Can I know what it's like to deeply love You?

And Lord, for the record, I'm willing to do anything.
Just show me.

I thank God that it isn't about me anymore.
