He is my portion.

The more and deeper God shows me my need of Him, the more I am satisfied in Him. An ironic thing to say if you think about it, but also the most profound thing I have been experiencing now. To give up everything to follow Him, the more I receive Him.

The more I receive Him, and gaze on Him, the more I see my undeservedness.

Ah, like Isaiah, as we see God we should say, "Woe is me!" and fall to our faces.

I don't deserve my life, nor His life, but Jesus has revealed Himself and given Himself fully to me. He has saved me from wretched life, He has rescued me! He is my delight and now it is my desire to have everyone I see make Him their delight as well, saving them from wasted years. But how am I to do this? Lord Jesus, help me surrender my selfishness, my pride, my ideas that say I am righteous when I am not. I am sin, I am undeserving, I am hopeless, but God is my everything, He is my glory, my hope, my joy, my restoration! I am NOTHING without Him, and yet with Him I am NOTHING, but with Him I have everything!!! How can such a God give Himself to hopeless people? How can such a love exist? May I fall into His arms daily, surrending everything and delighting in the trials and the joys He sets before me. Lord Jesus, I trust you with my heart, everything. Continue to break me and mold me, and lift up my brothers and sisters to your throne that they may see your holiness, see their sin, and the glory of such a view, for your holiness has given itself fully to us because you commanded it to, and you have brought us into your presence, when we are people who should not even look at you for we would die, but you are our portion Lord....You are my portion.
