We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

What are we salves to? What are our bottom-line passions? Fasting is God’s testing ground – and healing ground. Will we murmur as the Israelites murmured when they had no bread? Will be leave the path of obedience and turn stones into bread? Or will we “live by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God?” Fasting is a way of revealing to ourselves and confessing to God what is in our hearts.
John Piper

The seed contains the pattern for the plant that grows. All the genetic code for an entire oak tree is contained inside the kernel of the acorn. Likewise, our resurrection bodies will bear a resemblance to the body that is buried – but with a far greater glory. We will be ourselves, only perfect. And the decomposition of the earthly will only facilitate the remaking of a glorified resurrection body – with none of the flaws of the old, but with all that is necessary for a perfect existence in heaven.
John MacArthur

    Make A Joyful Noise Unto The Lord,
    All Ye Lands
    And Serve The Lord With Gladness;
    Come Before His Presence With Singing
    And Know That He Is God;

    Make A Joyful Noise Unto The Lord,
    All Ye Lands
    And Serve The Lord With Gladness;
    Enter Into His Gates With Thanksgiving,
    And Into His Courts With Praise;

    It Is He Hath made Us,
    And We Are His:
    We Are His People,
    And The Sheep of His Pasture
