As for me, I am tired of talking about what we are going to do. I am sick of talking about helping people, of brainstorming and conferencing about ways we can be radical and make sacrifices. I don’t want to merely talk anymore. Life is too short. I don’t want to speak about Jesus; want to know Jesus. I want to be Jesus to people. I don’t want just to write about the Holy Spirit; I want to experience His presence in my life in a profound way.

There is no real sense of urgency in our life here in America. We could (in theory) live our whole life without sensing that we “need” the guidance of the Holy Spirit…(now don’t get me wrong, there would be struggles, confusion, heartache, etc.), but we would not necessarily have to depend on our Faith for food, shelter, etc. I think this is the reason that people in third world countries are so receptive to the spirit of God and the power that it is within. They have nothing else to put their trust in! Maybe we should purposefully live uncomfortably to keep this sense of urgency alive in our spirit?
