Living On The Edge...Loving Relentlessly

Welcome! Let me tell you a little about who I am. I am a woman on an adventurous journey that loves the Lord with all my heart, soul, and mind. I love the excitement of living on the edge, waiting for God to rescue me in the most amazing ways. My heart's desire is that I may inspire others to join me as I seek to live fully, love relentlessly, and laugh joyfully!

Live Abundantly!

Matthew 22:37-39 - "...Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: Love your neighbor as yourself."

The rain was gently and slowly coming down. I could hear the pitter-patter on the roof over my head as I knelt down before the Lord. I was quiet and still. There was no sound around me - only the gentle, soothing sound of the raindrops. It reminded me of the softness of Christ's Spirit, His soothing love and gentleness.

I asked the Lord to pour out His Spirit all over me like rain. He did. A soft, gentle love came rushing over me. I was frozen in the moment. His Spirit was holding me tight. I knew He was there with me. Suddenly I knew the vastness of His Being. I realized how small I am in His presence. I am nothing without Him. He is everything to me in this dark world.

Tears came over me as I thought about the many times I have bowed before Him with selfish motives. Many times I had made it about me. This was very different. It was all about Him, His power, and His strength. His love and strength consumed me. I understood better what it means to die to my self. In those moments, my needs were far from my thoughts. I was in the midst of the Famous One. I was in AWE. I was overcome. I wanted time to stop. I didn't want to move. In His presence, I was speechless.
