The big question he proposed, to himself and to his audience, was "why?". Why don't we yearn for, why don't we crave, why aren't we constantly longing for Christ?
In the weeks following my return from the East Asia Summer project that I was on I was so excited and so fired up that it was hard to contain. I had seen God work in me and that was all I needed to go tell others in Orlando. There were no stipulations, no formalities, nothing I needed to do before being filled with the spirit. I was with Him and I could feel Him with me. There was passion and desire and I felt whole.
The struggle I foresaw, and that would come to pass, was maintaining the fire. In the drudgery of everyday, how do I feed the flames of my faith?
So throughout this semester I want to find out how to do just that. I want to be fanatic and in love with Christ like I was this summer from when I wake up till when I lay my head down each day.
