We got prayed over last night by Madison's family's community group and it was incredible. We will be heading to Norman in about 45 minutes to go to Emily's graduation party, and then we'll head to Tulsa to see my side of the fam. I'll tell your grandparents hello. Remember, tomorrow is Mother's Day, so make sure you let Mom know how much you love her and think she's the best.
On another note: God gave us a picture on our way to Dallas of all of us in a big bed together as a family, dreaming and being poured into by the Lord. It was in a cabin in a big field, and at the right time, an alarm clock woke all of us up, and we were to get up immediately and go out to harvest together. We each have been given all the tools we need, so we don't have to worry about that. We are going out into a field to release the things that have grown from the bondage of the ground. The field is ready for harvest.
I feel like this is God telling us that we have been getting things from the Lord, and He has been pouring Himself into us. We are being made ready for each moment from here on out. We don't have to worry about conjuring up great things, they've been given to us. He's given us a heart to know him (Jeremiah 24:7). Now we WILL be faithful to go out when He says to go out. We will awaken and jump into His field to be used by Him there. The theme is the same: Death. We are continually dying to ourselves, it's never going to stop.
We also got a vision of us as a team being pieces of gold and silver, having to be burned to get all the impurities out.
We desire to stay in the melting stage- no room for tarnishing, but remaining pure and melting in His Presence.
Father, kill us. We want to be dead and lose our lives to find them in YOU. You are our refuge, our portion in the land of the living. We delight ourselves in YOU. Give us a heart to know you. Come in close- intimacy with You is all we want. Your heart is the one thing we want more than life or peace or comfort or riches or prestige or recognition. YOUR HEART IS ALL THAT WE WANT! Reveal the man Jesus to us. Open the windows of Heaven and pour out your blessing of your Spirit until there is no more room for us to hold Him. Thank you Jesus. Wound our hearts to look like yours- like the hearts on our shirts. They're not meant to look cool. They're meant to be symbolic of what our hearts really are. We are lovers looking for a Lover, and we've found HIM. You are a lover looking for a Lover, and you've found us. Yes, Jesus.
