There is no one I desire except You

“I pray to God with all my heart that I may be weary of everything except converse and communion with Him"

The Living and Active Word of God

Excerpted from ABOVE ALL EARTHLY POWERS by David Wells.
"For it is certainly the case that the Word of God, read or preached, has the power to enter the innermost crevices of a person's being, to shine light in unwanted places, to explode the myths and deceits by which fallen life sustains itself, and to bring that person face to face with the eternal God. It is this biblical Word which God uses to bring repentance, to excite faith, to give new life, to sustain that life once given, to correct, nurture, and guide the Church.”

Blaise Pascal On Writing

In what I am writing, let no one think I am saying anything new. It is only the arrangement of my material that may be new. For it is like a game of tennis, where we both play with the same ball, but one of us uses it to better advantage. So I would like it to be said that I am simply using well-worn words in a new framework. For when familiar thoughts are rearranged, they simply present a different way of communicating the truth. [So too, we can rearrange our words to edify the Body of Christ].
