         A Word for Those Who Have Been Pursuing God
                 In the Midst of The Desert

Ps. 63:1 "O God, You are my God, early will I seek You, my soul thirsts
for You, my flesh longs for You in a dry and thirsty land where there is
no water."

My child I have seen your moments of brokeness before me. Through the
times where you felt poor in spirit and weak in heart, you obeyed the
yearning of your flesh to cry out to me. You dropped every routine and
agenda to spend time with me...it was there my child where I was waiting
for you. Through the moments of supplication when you cried "Lord I need
Your presence", I was there enveloping you in my peace.  Through the
moments of desperation when you longed to see and touch my glory I was
holding you tightly in my arms.  Because of your weakness and dependance
upon Me, I am drawing you closer in our intamacy. You WILL hear my still
small voice my child with greater consistency...all I ask is that you
maintain your heart of humility before Me and I will use you as the
chosen vessel you have longed to be. In the midst of the desert every
test you are facing will become a testimony for my children that I will
send for you to demonstrate My greatness.  Continue to run to Me in
humility and I will uphold you my child..for I am Greater in the midst of
your circumstances.  Most importantly, know that I love you
unconditionally!
