Holy.


God is absolutely one of a kind. God has no analogies. God defines us, we can't define Him; He alone is incomparable. Matt Gilman says it best, "There is only one word that comes to mind, there is only one word to describe; Holy."

I have struggled recently with wanting to write blog posts, preach sermons, or share thoughts with friends on topics directly related to the Lord, but not necessarily amplifying His name Hugely, above all else! What else is more due His name than saying He alone is Holy!? Why in the world would I want to talk about anything else? When we gaze into the throne room from scripture, we see God-worship occurring. Holy! Holy! Holy! is a common posture of the heart towards the Lord. We don't see people discussing how to make much of their life in Heaven; how to be more joyful, loving, peaceable, and righteous. We see constant Facedown worship. I am not saying the former is wrong to talk about at all, however, couldn't we conclude if we wake up to the Holiness of God, all the "lesser" things would in turn stem from that posture of the heart automatically? The fruits of the Spirit as laid in Galatians 5, are God's exact heart and personality manifested in us! It's as if we enjoy talking about the gifts, rather than the Giver. Focusing on the Bride, rather than the Bridegroom.
All I want is to make Jesus known. I want to love Jesus more! I want to gaze upon His beauty constantly. (Psalm 27:4)

Jesus may we be awestruck, shut-up, and Facedown before you!
