His Expression.

I'm wholly convinced that our Creator is for us.
He is for us encountering Him.
He is for us knowing Him.
He is for us perceiving His revelations.

We have a built in disposition to repel and resist the revelations of God.
But because we are loved by our Father He sends the Holy Spirit, who counteracts our ignorant and defiant ways, giving us ears that hear and eyes that are no longer blinded to His truth.
:: He is for us encountering Him.

As if that doesn't speak enough volume into the loving heart of a Creator for His creation, He continues to pursue us through His Word. God, Himself accommodates the small measure of our brains as He breathed scripture out to fit within the confines of our capacity of language.
:: He is for us knowing Him.

God reveals Himself to us in the scriptures which transcend all generations and address all eras of His creation . He communicates to us in beautiful analogies that paint a glimpse of who God is. We can step into a knowledge of who God is as we look at human experiences and God's experiences of Himself in scripture.
:: He is for us perceiving His revelations.


It's a mystery as to why we are sons and daughters of the King.

  1. i love your blogs! He is so good. He is good. nothing else is even close. I don't even know what good is... Until i stand in His prescnece i won't know what 'good' is. right now, it's just a word that automatically spits out when someone asks how i am. you're sooooooo right caydin. He deeeeeeeply deeply desires to know us. We are His children. unreal.

    "But because we are loved by our Father He sends the Holy Spirit, who counteracts our ignorant and defiant ways, giving us ears that hear and eyes that are no longer blinded to His truth."

    that is so awesome. Oh praise Him!!!

  2. 'We have a built in disposition to repel and resist' The fall sucks. That's the saddest truth. We don't let Gods love cover us and sink in! How dumb is that!

    I love what Darin said about it's so hard for us to receive and walk confidently in God's love because it's so foreign to us. We're so used to flawed, broken love. Even the best love we've ever experienced is so screwed up compared to the pure love of God.

    Will you, Spirit, break our film that causes the Fathers love to bead off and away from us. Let us overcome the most radical inconsistency that tells us the truth that we don't deserve it - and somehow, let us receive it.

  3. Crud!!

    That was beautiful, Caydin!! Definitely so Spirit filled. He wants to draw near to us. We block Him from being able to do so when we fill our lives with so much junk that the Spirit is no longer able to engage our hearts in a way that God really wants to! When we come desiring fresh encounters and fresh daily bread, we are able to step into new and wild relationship with the Creator. We are able to touch and be touched by the healing hands of Jesus. We are able to fully encounter all that the Spirt wants to pour into us, therefore, allowing us to better pour into others' lives who need to see and feel Jesus' love.

  6. I love our God! I love that we can call Him 'Abba, Daddy' and that we are his sons and daughters. Thanks for reminding me of His desire for us to be so intimate with Him and wanting us to perceive, encounter, and know Him. :)

  8. it's an amazing thing that a world of spirits desires to interact with a physical world. it's far too complex for me to grasp, indeed.
