Ruined!


Ruined! (1)

By Ramone - February 12, 2009

I was talking with a Christian friend and used this analogy to describe how after God interrupted my life with His reality, with His really real presence, my life was ruined! I could never be the same anymore, especially after meeting the Holy Spirit. It's like I had a sort of "picture" of life, of my life and life itself. And suddenly God came along and BAM! He dropped some water on my nice little picture, ruining it!

That water is His presence, and I will never be the same again. I can't go back! I thirst and long for His presence, for Him Himself, not for my ideas about Him. Oh, I do get distracted sometimes, but He always brings me back to desiring Him Himself. I am ruined! Ha! I'll re-use Isaiah's words:
"Woe to me! I am ruined! My eyes have seen the King, the Lord Almighty!"
I am blessedly ruined by His presence. Thank You, Lord! I pray this for EVERYONE, that EVERYONE may be ruined by Your presence, too, and never stop thirsting for more of You in their lives and to know You more! In Jesus' name, amen!

Ramone, this picture "drew" me to tears! How true it is for me as well.
