Hi everybody, Michaiah are you out there? You talked about your daughter on Mike's blog and I didn't want to drag everyone off topic and respond but would like to. Where I have been for the last 6 days is nothing but young people mostly, and young people madly in love with Jesus. We're bored because we were made for one thing and the church is everything but one thing. Health, life and fruit come from abiding. I'd like to suggest a place to take her. I know you have your Mom, and maybe this has to be worked out by the Lord if it's His idea, and not mine. But in Nov is a Passion for Jesus conference in Fort Wayne, Ind. If you go to IHOP.org, you can get information. Barring that, there is the book, One Thing, by Dwayne Roberts. I'm not suggesting this "fixes" something, but the Lord has been doing this work in my life for quite some time, actually about 12 years, and leading me into this intimacy, which after last week, I have to say, I'm not sure I really knew Him. I know I am saved, but the Jesus I met last week is not who I thought He was. The International House of Prayer is primarily an intercessors ministry, but there is something there for all believers, which is boldly pursuing the only thing that matters, and that is Jesus. Anything else is born out of that. I experienced deep and profound change in my heart, and deliverence to use a biblical word. When our hunger is misguided we can become facinated with all kinds of things, whether it's addictions, sex, pornography, money and on the "good" side(what the Church often advocates), work, production, knowledge, ministry....but the facination of the beauty and splendor of Jesus Christ is soul changing. You can't help but be changed...it just happens in His presence. David loved the presence of God. Read Psalm 84...27...his heart was set on one thing.
I will be praying for you and your daughter. I don't have adequate words yet to communicate everything I would want to. But I can pray. Lisa

Suzanne, loved your praise! L

Thanks Suzanne,

Yes we are looking into the IHOP but I didn't know there was one so close to us and in November. Awesome. I'll look it up. She is just awesome and I know the Lord will use her mightly. Thank you for your suggestion. The one thing is awesome. In the here and now God made us to do other things to and find fulfillment in them such as ministry etc. and I hope I offer something for some people. I feel connected to Jesus. It is not good that man should be alone. Relationship is good and I want that for her. Again thank you. Have an awesome day. Michaiah
