He is God.  The creator of the universe and author and finisher of my faith.  The one I am desperate for.

He is Jesus.  The one who saves humanity by becoming the perfect sacrifice; shed his blood and died on the cross for our sins.   He is the one that I follow hard after, who I desire to become more like.  The one I am desperate for.

He is The Holy Spirt.  So mysterious, yet beautiful, when He showers us with Love.  He is my guide, my helper who I need to be wise and discerning with the way in which I live out my life.  He uncovers the  secrets of The Word of God and teaches me what He wants me to learn.  He is the one I am desperate for.

Desperate Defined:       

  1. Being filled with, or in a state of despair; hopeless.
     
  2. Reckless abandon in the pursuit of an extreme desire.
  3. Extremely intense.

Do you see Him in the desperation? 1. Despair and hopelessness:  We are lost without Him.  There is no hope.  We’ll just end up drifting aimlessly in this life, always longing for more of something we can never grasp.  2. Reckless abandon and extreme desire:  This is where my heart is, and where I constantly want it to be: Reckless abandon in the pursuit of an extreme desire.  That desire for me is Jesus!  To desire Him and to be desperately seeking after Him because I know if I don’t, I ‘m going to be aimlessly drifting; and I really don’t want to do that; been there too many times.  3.  Extremely Intense: The more I follow Jesus the more intense the journey gets.  The more I desire and thirst after righteousness, the more I want His  heart and to become more like Him in every way. 

This is my Desperation.  Jesus is my everything.  It is for Him that I live, that I long, and that I pray I will always remain desperate for.   I fear this lack of desperation is running rampant in our churches today.  It is a burden that God has placed on my heart.  At the moment, I am not sure what He is doing with it, but I am learning to communicate my heart on this matter on this blog through my own experiences and what I find and read as God leads me to understanding.  The Lord calls us, and we are sanctified and set apart for His purposes.  So as I wait for more of that to be revealed to me, I lay it down the best I can at the cross, and trust in His sovereignty that He alone knows my heart and will deal with me however He chooses. 

This blog exists to share my life in Christ. To help me stay focused on all things above and to help and encourage others along in their journey.  May you be blessed as you watch me follow Him and my prayer is that you may become desperate for Him too.  God Bless.  Robin
