The psalmist implies\u2014 \u201cO Lord, You are the God of the early mornings, the God of the late nights, the God of the mountain peaks, and the God of the sea. But, my God, my soul has horizons further away than those of early mornings, deeper darkness than the nights of earth, higher peaks than any mountain peaks, greater depths than any sea in nature. You who are the God of all these, be my God. I cannot reach to the heights or to the depths; there are motives I cannot discover, dreams I cannot realize. My God, search me.\u201dDo we believe that God can fortify and protect our thought processes far beyond where we can go? \u201c. . . <em>the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin<\/em>\u201d (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.biblegateway.com\/passage\/?search=1+John+1:7\">1 John 1:7<\/a>). If this verse means cleansing only on our conscious level, may God have mercy on us. The man who has been dulled by sin will say that he is not even conscious of it. But the cleansing from sin we experience will reach to the heights and depths of our spirit if we will \u201cwalk in the light as He is in the light\u201d (1 John 1:7). The same Spirit that fed the life of Jesus Christ will feed the life of our spirit. It is only when we are protected by God with the miraculous sacredness of the Holy Spirit that our spirit, soul, and body can be preserved in pure uprightness until the coming of Jesus-no longer condemned in God\u2019s sight.We should more frequently allow our minds to meditate on these great, massive truths of God.<\/section>\n<section><\/section>\n<section>______________________________________________________<\/section>\n<section><\/section>\n<section><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">January 9, 2014<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">Lord, till you are my one desire, please keep making me.\u00a0 Till you are my one true love, please keep making me.\u00a0 I know I get distracted, confused and chase my own ways and means.
