HEED





Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip. HEBREWS 2:1, KJV. 
So we must listen very carefully to the truth we have heard, or we may drift away from it. HEBREWS 2:1, NLT.  

There is something about seasons that makes them more than an experience. I don't know what exactly it is. Perhaps it's the manner in which every experience is perfectly orchestrated to pass across a divine message. Sometimes the message(s) being passed across is fresh other times it's a reinforcer. Irrespective of the category the message belongs to I like that it's always an evidence of the father's love that renews our love for the father, deepens our faith, revives our hope, empowers us for the journey and reveals more of the father's will. Having gone through the silent, wordy, dry and flourishing seasons more times than I can number all I can say is I can't enough because there is always more. More ways God will express Himself. More words to hear. More understanding to gain. There is more of everything. I have learnt however that more than the Word I want to hear, I should pay attention to the medium at which the message would be and is being conveyed.

17





Like a joke you slipped in
Slowly making yourself known
Funny how your time has reached
Awestruck understates my state

VOID





17 so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through your faith. And may you, having been [deeply] rooted and [securely] grounded in love, 18 be fully capable of comprehending with all the saints (God’s people) the width and length and height and depth of His love [fully experiencing that amazing, endless love];
19 and [that you may come] to know [practically, through personal experience] the love of Christ which far surpasses [mere] knowledge [without experience], that you may be filled up [throughout your being] to all the fullness of God [so that you may have the richest experience of God’s presence in your lives, completely filled and flooded with God Himself]. EPHESIANS 3:17-19, AMP.  
17 and I pray that Christ will make his home in your hearts through faith. I pray that you may have your roots and foundation in love, 18 so that you, together with all God's people, may have the power to understand how broad and long, how high and deep, is Christ's love. 19 Yes, may you come to know his love—although it can never be fully known—and so be completely filled with the very nature of God. EPHESIANS 3:17-19, GNT.

"There's a void rising, emptiness returning. There's need to refill, come to me and I will fill your cup. Drown yourself in my word and you'll never run dry." I can hear Jesus saying to me through the Holy Spirit. Truly, I am beginning to feel empty. I am hungrier for God's presence than ever. I spend more time in the place of prayer and worship and I set out time to be under the ministration of the word but I feel like I don't know God, His voice and ultimate will. I need Him more. In this dryness, my solace is the promise that He will fill me with more of Him.


But, there's always a but!😫
