Glorious Beautiful Mystery

My prayer and heart in 2025: 

"Draw me after you, let us run."
This has been a transformative verse for me at different times in my life. And it seems to fit perfectly once again.
The intimacy that we can experience with the Lord.. the beauty.. the adventure, is quite extravagant.
Papa, "Draw me after you, let us run."
Let us make waves. Let us transform atmospheres. Let us fellowship with people. Let us teach and pull people up and out. Let us be a beacon of hope, a lighthouse on the shore. Let us offer out all the treasures we've found in this house and family of God.
