Paying The Price

[Albert Finch]

Psalm 42:1 -- As the hart panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after thee, O God.

 

We neglect to pay the price for the presence of God and wind up wandering around in a wilderness of our own making, being pursued by Satan.

Everything begins with total abandonment, total surrender and total hunger for the living Christ -- not the things He gives or imparts, but Christ and Christ alone.

 

Psalm 63:1 -- O God You are my God; early will I see You; my soul thirsts for You; my flesh longs for You in a dry and thirsty land where there is no water.

Jeremiah 29:13,14 -- And you shall seek me, and find me, when you shall search for me with all your heart. And I will be found of you says the Lord.
