I just came out of a four day 'REFUGE' conference. I entered in tired and thirsty and I exited tired and thirsty - yet totally changed. I have had a season in my life recently where I was broken and nothing or nobody could fix me. God was stripping away layers, working me right back down to the core again. That made me tired. I got tired of 'doing' things for God and other people. At the same time I thirsted for something more, something that would satisfy. I knew that I needed to have some alone time with God - actually, I longed for it. And God knew that too and so he made a way for me to go to this conference. He met me there and he took over my life again - freeing me in my spirit and lighting fires that I didn't even know where there. Over the last few days I have heard 10 sermons - everyone of them speaking directly to me (I am going to be blogging lots about them over the next few weeks as I digest it all!). Now the conference is finished and I'm tired. But in a good way. I am tired of standing still before God. I am tired of people being fake. I am tired of keeping my passions hidden. And I'm thirsty. I'm thirsty for this Nation to see God. I am thirsty for God to continue to pour into my life. I am thirsty for more revelations. I am thirsty for ministry. I am thirsty to dance all day long for God - so I'm going to quit talking about it. I'm going to quit talking about my tiredness and thirstiness and I'm going to do something about it. If someone is tired, they sleep. If someone is thirsty they drink - they do something about it. They would eventually die if they didn't. I have already died to my past tiredness and thirstiness and I am ready to take on this new life that I have been given!
