Tonight as I was praying and trying to pick which books to bring with me as heart nourishment during the flight, I pulled down Tozer's book "Knowledge of the Holy" and opened up to the preface. The very first sentence floored me. It put into a few words what my heart is longing to see manifested in my life:
"True religion confronts earth with heaven and brings eternity to bear upon time."
To see healing and deliverance everywhere, where the Spirit of God breathes life and hope, invading the hopeless and weak, the forgotten and misunderstood, the bound and tortured, the confused and aimless...
that to me is a portion of what it means to confront earth with heaven,
and I want to see that more and more.
