Because God's Love.
Because the love of God has been generously shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Spirit.
Because the love feast of God's fellowship has been spread wide on the table of our hearts by the Holy Spirit.
Because God's eternal name has been declared and branded permanently on the tablet of our hearts by the Holy Spirit.
Because the unconditional agape of the eternal Father has gushed out of His heart into ours by the Holy Spirit.
Because the love of God has run greedily into the center of our circulation by the Holy Spirit.
Because the fabric of God's nature has been deposited into our innermost self by the Holy Spirit.
Because the love of God has been bestowed and distributed largely inside our being by the Holy Spirit.
Now hope does not disappoint.

It's That Much Easier
It’s that much easier as a Sunday morning routine.
It’s that much easier as a scheduled box.
Oh, how He loves us. Oh how He loves us!
Saved from hell, that’s good enough. It’s that much easier.
Saved from trouble, that’s good enough. It’s that much easier.
Oh, how He loves us. Oh how He loves us!
I want them whole; I want them complete in Me. It’s that much easier.
I desire all of them; I desire perfect union. It’s that much easier.
Oh, how He loves us. Oh how He loves us!
I will set the hungry long hours before Me. It’s that much easier.
That way they can’t hide their darkness from themselves. It’s that much easier.
Oh, how He loves us. Oh how He loves us!
The light shines in our darkness and it’s painful. It’s that much easier.
The light shines to save us from lust, pride, and injustice. It’s that much easier.
Oh, how He loves us. Oh how He loves us!
The battle is to be fixed on Him and be fully delivered from self. It’s that much easier.
The battle is to hope against our weakness; and yet be purified. It’s that much easier.
Oh, how He loves us. Oh how He loves us!
I will equip the hungry for battle, the unsatisfied for war. It’s that much easier.
I will train the seekers for glory, the royal ones for treasure. It’s that much easier.
Oh, how He loves us. Oh how He loves us!
I will give them all my heart, mind, soul, and strength. It’s that much easier.
They will love me with all their heart, mind, soul, and strength. It’s that much easier.
Oh, how He loves us. Oh how He loves us!
Luke 3:4,5,6
It is written. It is forever promised.
The Word is as sure as the throne He sits on.
Listen! Who will listen? Hear! Who will hear?
A trumpet is blasting, a fire is raging, the earth is quaking.
In the wild. No glitz, no glam, just fire. Burning, in the desolate places.
It is written. It is forever promised.
The Word will come as sure as the foundation of the earth.
Go out! Who will go out? Come! Who will come?
Geography is being shifted – in the wild. In the wild ones.
To prepare a way for the wild One to change everything.
It is written. It is forever promised.
The Word will restore everything as He created it – to be wild in Him.
Prepare! Who will prepare? Transform! Who will transform?
Glory shall be revealed where there is wild. To make wild, and to transform.
Creation groans to be wild again, as the wild ones are made manifest. To prepare.
It is written. It is forever promised.
The Word will be seen by all flesh, for He is the salvation of God.
Behold! All will behold. See! All will see.
Without Veil
Eye to Eye. Face to Face. Heart to Heart.
I was made to see You without veil.
My purity is your eternal passion.
For the pure in heart shall see God.
I was made to see You without veil.
To ascend the hill of the Lord, washed, white, ready.
To be transfigured on the hilltop from glory to glory.
To journey from strength to strength to the dwelling place of Consuming Fire.
I was made to see You without veil.
One thing have I desired of the Lord, that will I seek.
One thing is necessary, and will never be taken from me.
To gaze on real, lasting beauty.
To behold the everlasting One and be forever fascinated.
I was made to see You without veil.
(Psalm 24:3-5, 27:4, 84:5; Hebrews 12:29; 2 Cor. 3:13-18; Matt. 5:8; Luke 10:42)
Being Made Ready
Yes, it hurts. No, its’ not always pretty. This being made ready.
Yes, it burns. No, its’ definitely accomplishing something good. Being made ready.
Yes, there’s more. No, we’re not nearly done yet. Still being made ready.
Yes, brokenness runs deep. No, His love must run deeper. In order to be made ready.
Yes, its’ time for judgment to begin in the house of God. No, not yet the world. We’re not ready.
Yes, the veil has been torn. No, not only that veil - the one over the darkness in our hearts. Ready?
Yes, it is wisdom to fall on the Rock. No, don’t think you don’t have to go there. All must be ready.
Yes, its’ easier not to get our hands dirty. No, we can’t avoid it forever. We must make ourselves ready.
Yes, the stumbling blocks are being removed. No, we don’t know all the details. But He’s quite ready.
Yes, gather to stand and hear the voice of the Bridegroom. No, not just them. Altogether already.
Yes, He is returning soon. No, much sooner than that. And His prayer is that He’d find us ready.
Yes, ready or not, here He comes. No, not halfway - all the way down. And so must we - to be ready.
(Rev. 19:7 - “Let us be glad and rejoice…for the Bride has made herself ready.”)
