What Can I Do With My Obsession

Lately, God has been stirring an obsession within Lori and I. He has been creating an overwhelming desire to simply worship Him. It has become such an obsession that the enemy is trying everything he can to mess things up. The enemy has been throwing physical, emotional, spiritual or financial burdens in front of us that are all being used to put a damper on our obsession and make it so we can't realize what we can do with our obsession.


God is also at work because we keep getting these new awesome songs thrown in front of us. They are songs that REALLY speak to us and God is using them impart new revelations on Lori and I that are pulling us into a more intimate relationship with Him. It seems like we are getting to the point where we need simply stand in the presence of God and tell Him that "My Heart Burns For You!" Honestly, I think that is the point that God wants us to reach. The point where we look around and realize that during the times where it seems like God is further away then the moon is when we need to stand up and cry out "MY HEART BURNS FOR YOU!" At that point we will realize that He is truly closer than our skin.


Our obsession is to not only develop a relationship with God but to move past a simple connection with God where we only allow Him to operate on the surface and totally submit and cry out to God. I want intimacy. I want God to touch me in new ways that I never thought possible. I want to be in saturated in His love and as a result have that love pour back out of me.


Listen to Obsession on YouTube. Crank it up loud and tell God that your heart burns for Him!

  1. Jeff,
    One aspect you may want to touch on in a future blog is how God is not only drawing you to this obsession of worship, but how it is effecting Lori also.

    Having your best friend next to you loving the same God is a priceless event indeed.

    All my love to my brother Jeff,
