"It is hard to bear with people who stand still along the way, lose heart, and seek their happiness in little pleasures which they cling to....You feel sad about all that self-indulgence and self-satisfaction, for you know with indestructible certainty that something greater is coming..."
-Henri Nouwen
The Bible says that the path of the righteous grows brighter and brighter. (Proverbs 4:18)
The increase of Jesus' Kingdom government will never end. (Isaiah 9:7)
Dr. Oz, once said during an interview with Oprah that he chose the his career in the medical field because he could study the human body for the rest of his life and never get bored because there would always be something more....a new discovery to pursue, a new fascination to study out further....
While the human body is fascinating and medical science is a truly noble field, I think I will give my life to pursuing the One who created the human body. The One, who for all eternity we will gaze at in awe, wonder, amazement, and worship.
The best thing about longing for more of God...is that there will always be more of God.
