I, too, and loving this new (to me) view of worship as a continual mindset and a moment by moment choice...while I am waiting...while I am working...while I am playing.Cherrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17687753526720638459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6187423214160528044.post-52732457995546339322013-06-16T11:43:36.650-07:002013-06-16T11:43:36.650-07:00I have enjoyed this first chapter very much and it...I have enjoyed this first chapter very much and it reminded me of an Oswald Chambers entry...check out his thoughts on January 6th concerning worship. Here's a bit of it: "there are not three levels of spiritual life--worship, waiting, and work. Yet some of us seem to jump like spiritual frogs from worship to waiting, and from waiting to work. God's idea is that the three should go together as one...."

I think in the past I have thought about intimacy with <br />God as a "mountain top experience" that happened because of a speaker's message or even the environment of retreat or something similar. I thought it needed an outside catalyst. And though I believe all those things have great value in that they can lead you to intimacy and show you what God has to offer in that place, intimacy with God is like you said..."on purpose." Yielding our lives...every part of them to Him is living a purposefully intimate life. Maybe we get too caught up in the "feeling" instead of the yielding? What do you think?Cherrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17687753526720638459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6187423214160528044.post-42525317015679971392013-06-12T17:55:27.886-07:002013-06-12T17:55:27.886-07:00This book is off to an awesome start.

Now, almost 6 pm and haven't stopped running. My bible reading is caught up for the next couple of days... but I really need to and want to spend time with Him every day. That is what I desire... to be more consistent, have a real faith that makes a real difference in my life as well as on others. Not a vending machine type of relationship!!!<br />The first chapter of the book shows me what needs to be yielded... my words, my attitude, my work, my waiting.Lynn Haneganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14228412732280271384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6187423214160528044.post-11045303144122099312013-06-12T17:51:02.355-07:002013-06-12T17:51:02.355-07:00Hi Jenny!

At fifteen my mom could not get me to STOP reading the Bible. I talked of my sweet Jesus all the time, and He was the focus in my life...but then BOYS became a focus and then a certain one and before I knew it, I was married with little ones and my focus was going in a hundred different directions. Jesus got a portion of my focus, but that early sweet intimacy had faded. I am so grateful for gifted authors and teachers who guide us back to our first love!!!! I am looking forward to hearing more from you in the future and growing along with you! So glad you are enjoying the study! Blessings to you!<br /><br />Cherri<br />Cherrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17687753526720638459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6187423214160528044.post-88965414051847462012013-06-12T14:01:27.570-07:002013-06-12T14:01:27.570-07:00Absolutely loving this so far!This study is coming...Absolutely loving this so far!This study is coming at the perfect time for me. I too am searching for a deeper intimacy with God. I feel like I have been there before, but unfortunately through time and circumstances had let it slip away. I'm really looking forward to going further into the book! Linda Dillow is a wonderfully gifted author.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17656594481316068043noreply@blogger.com
