You Aren't Allowed to Wait
Monday, February 6, 2012 at 9:09PM
You aren’t allowed to wait until God comes to you
and says, “I am.”
A God who confirms his strengths
is ridiculous.
You must know that God blows through you
from the start,
and when your heart burns within and doesn’t betray you,
then we know that God is working within.
