only one*thing

the only thing suitably quenching
is the nearness of GOD

_Nearly 8 weeks behind us, nearly 8 weeks to go. How much there seems to be I would like to have done by now, & how much more I hope to be able to do in this second half.

_For some of us, our lives are a fifth over, others a fourth, others a third, even others half, and some maybe less than half.

_So much has happened these past few years, even more in the span of my twenty-two years. Maybe I have lived a fifth of my life, or maybe my life is more than half behind me. Truly I say to you, there are many things I want to do in this mist-like life, but there is only one thing I want to accomplish.

_Has my life been defined by what I fancy to do, or the main purpose of life {to bring glory to God in [all] things}? I examine my check book, my time use, and my motivations in hopes that the HS may reveal where I am denying my LORD.

_If I claim to myself and my friends God is my all, does my integrity claim the same? Or do I make Him out to be a liar?

_may we not honor God with our lips while our hearts are far from him; may we ever-evaluate ourselves that we may truly live what we claim; &may we be unashamed to live raw, open, & honest lives.
