The past few days I have been burdened for a deeper intimacy with the Lord. I read the story of Moses who who so close with the Lord that he spoke face to face with the Lord. His face would glow after each encounter. So it was perfect timing when I received a devotional email today about Enoch. It was as if the Lord was saying, “Don’t be satisfied with face to face, we can be closer then that.”
So often we allow ourselves to be satisfied with less then the fullness of what the Lord has for us. We become comfortable with mediocrity as if it were a high goal. What the Lord stirred in me this week was a renewed insatiable craving for nothing less then the relationship and closeness I will experience with the Lord in Heaven. In the meantime, as I wait for that day, I want nothing less then as perfect a closeness as I can experience here on earth with my Creator.
I can’t help but daydream that this is the real cause of the return of Christ. (Totally without Scriptural support – just a daydream) That His people would be so close to Him that He will come for us and draw us to Him for eternity.
