Jesus Calling

Seek my face, and you will find all that you have longed for. The deepest yearnings of your heart are for intimacy with Me. I know, because I designed you to desire Me. Do not feel guilty about taking time to be still in My Presence. You are simply responding to the tugs of divinity within you. I made you in My image, and I hid heaven in your heart. Your yearning for Me is a form of homesickness: longing for your true home in heaven. ~ by Sarah Young from Jesus Calling.




As a deer pants for flowing streams, so pants my soul for you, O God. 
My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. 
Psalm 42:1-2
