Jesus Culture - One Thing Remains
Worship to me is one of the most beautiful gifts, that we can give to the Lord. I've come to the realization that I live out of that place.. when Im in my room spending quiet time with the Lord.. I cant help but sing a song unto Him.. exalting and magnifying His name. Allowing His presence and the words of the song. premeate my spirit..When you add the word..its even more amazing. Its as if..the word and His presence just kiss.. and you cant help but feel strengthened. In that moment He brings things that I need to correct, He speaks to my heart.. reminding me of His endless love. Its like being energized all over again.
This is the portion He has given me, He knew that "Natasha" would want to know Him deeper..that I would have a curiousity to seek His face. and to know His presence even deeper. When Im in His presence, I am ALIVE..words cant describe.. I feel at home.. right where I belong.
I would encourage every person, to soak.. to soak in the presence of the Lord...allowing his Love and power overtake you..quiet your spirit.. and let Him have his way. He is so faithful.. He has never gave up on you.. I pray this worship song blesses your heart.. let Him minister unto you ::)

Its not over..
Back at it again :) Was M.I.A for over a month! Well, I can honestly say that I didnt post anything.. due to me feeling as if what I have or wanted to say would be insgnificant. Yes, I know.. sad face :( But to my hearts joy, I serve a God that is faithful.. and persistent. He wont relent until He has it all. I know without a doubt, that He wants my Heart..He wants the hearts of His children.
Have you ever had a really close friend or boyfriend, that you did absolutely everything with?? You laughed together, cried together even fought with one another. Well, what I have learned.. is that our relationship with Yahweh (God) is the same. He knows how to move our hearts, and calm our fears. He knows what makes us smile and what makes us cry. I would sometimes think, why would The God of this Universe..care about me being angry or sad. I would think.."He already knows what Im feeling, I cant let him see that. Instead I need to "act" extra strong"-- People that is no way to live. Yeshua (Jesus) died for our sins, so that we could have eternal life.. so that we could have Heaven on earth. So that whatever is cast out in Heaven, will be cast out on earth. If it does not happen in Heaven..why should it happen here. We are spiritual beings, with the same purpose.. to love the Lord with all of our hearts, and to love others like Christ loved us. That is our main purpose, to bring people to the knowledge of Yeshua (Jesus).
I loose sight of that fact almost all the time, I'll be honest.. Instead of making a change.. sometimes I would just sit in the midst of confusion, and try to figure it out. As if Yahweh just placed a ball of confusion in my life..and said "deal with it, you messed up last week..". Those words are lies.. lies sent from the enemy.. sent from the world.. to destroy our faith..to diminish our hope... and drive us into helplessness.
Victory is in laying down your life, and not trusting in yourself. Joy comes when you realize your able to do no thing with out Him. Why wouldnt He consume your thoughts.. why wouldnt He free you from addictions, depression, insecurities, anger, hate? He is YAHWEH (GOD) the way the truth and the life.
So when things are "looking " helpless dont give up, press forward..allow yourself to be weak and vulnerable.. during those instances..He shows up.. and showers us with His love. Its not "Natasha" that people see..they see Christ in me. Takes the stress off of trying to be perfect.. and replaces those feelings with meekness.. knowing that in Him.. I will be strengthened..
We are in a time of transitioning spiritually, He is drawing us closer through His word and presence. Its time to respond..we may not see everything or understand. Pursue still..because He is there.. when you call on His name with all of your heart..and submit your life unto Him..He moves.
He knows that you are not perfect...thats why He sent his Son.
