I was listening to the song by Fernando Ortega Just give me Jesus, and I was thinking how we sing these songs just give me Jesus you can have all this world just give me Jesus. It sounds so good, yet we don’t really mean it we really mean Jesus give me this or that. I don’t really know where I’m going with this, ugh I just feel a frustration in my heart that I want Jesus that I’m sick of the emptiness of seeking after stuff I want raw God. I’m longing for that next encounter, I’m longing to see him move. I want a church that’s awake to the awesome wonder of knowing Jesus the privilege just to stand in his presence. Where are the hearts that are seeking him above everything else? where are those that will give up all to follow Christ? Why doesn’t anyone want to take up their cross anymore?

People keep asking me what you doing on fire school? What’s it about? I don’t know how to answer that, I’m just here because I know there’s more I can’t articulate what, but I’m just waiting. For what I don’t really know. I’m in a funny place I don’t feel like I’m going anywhere but I don’t have anywhere to go back to. So I’m just waiting.

So I’m just sitting in my grotty little brown room with the damp stain down the wall, crying out for more. More Lord!!

You can have all this world just give me Jesus.
