Deep calling into Deep

There is a place in this journey that after you have been formally introduced to Our Creator that something inside you will begin to happen. There is a transformation point where the Spirit of the Lord calls deep within the spirit that lives within us. Sometimes it will call to the deepest parts of our very existance and we will not even realize that it is calling. There is a point in this journey that the lord tells us to pray without ceasing and we are to bring our petitions before him but me must understand that there is also a point where we must stop and be still. To know him we must listen to him. If we are constantly over talking him and not giving him a chance to speak then we are defeating the purpose. In realizing that God truly has felt everything that we have felt. Have you ever really thought about it. When God created the heavens and the earth, he felt that it was good. The bible tells us that but why were we created. Why did he need us when he is everything. He is the Great I AM. The answer to that is that we were created to praise him. Why? God was lonely. He wanted to be in relationship with us. He wanted to love and to be loved. How many times in our life to we seek acceptance and attention. I know in my case especially in living the lifestyle of a victim, that is how we humanly try to fullfill that need. We play on the sympathy of others and try to obtain the fullfillment of love and belonging. God's original intent for our life is for us to be loved. That is why he says in his word that he IS love. It was our first commandment. : Mark 12:28-31 28 One of the teachers of the law came and heard them debating. Noticing that Jesus had given them a good answer, he asked him, "Of all the commandments, which is the most important?" 29 "The most important one," answered Jesus, "is this: 'Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one. 30 Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.' 31 The second is this: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no commandment greater than these." (from New International Version)
