It has been a while since I have been inspired to write my thoughts and insights and “what have you” on this web journal.  I really feel inspired right now, in light of my desire to be a voice for the Lamb, God’s Son. Even if this is never read, I want to be a voice that cries out and carries God’s emotional heart and this will help me articulate my heart for the future. 

I was inspired significantly by David Brainerd’s Diary made public by Jonathon Edwards, such that it impacted millions of people, not directly, but indirectly - through the missionaries who were heavily impacted after reading his daily records with the Native Americans of Delaware and the surrounding areas.  McCheyne, Wesley, and Whitefield are just three of the many missionaries impacted. So I want to make records like Brainerds, eventually. I am pressing to have a prayer life and witness like his. He loved to preach on Isaiah 53 and he also said he was inspired by the Suffering Servant more than anything in his ministry – this is where we find common ground.

This blog is about the Lamb – the Isaiah 53 Suffering Servant.  I say this because I am wrapped up in looking at the motive of my heart when I do things. This causes me to seek to only do things that are with the right motive.  God looks at the heart!  Being fearful of God is being respectful of God in the heart. If He looks at our hearts, then this should be our primary concern. What is going on in our hearts? So, what is going on in my heart as I write this – that the Lamb of God would receive the Reward of His sufferings.

The Father set the Son in the center of Heaven (Rev. 5:6) because of His heart’s desire to see the Lamb glorified as the perfection of all beauty and the pinnacle of all fascination. This is the heart of God. Just as God looks at our heart, it is time we look at His heart’s concern for His Son to be glorified on earth as He is in Heaven.

The time has come for the Father to glorify His Son (John 17:1)! This is the season, the season of Harvest. It is harvest time. If we do not know the message of the Suffering Servant more than any other message, then we are not wise son with the ability to reap the harvest.

God is looking for Harvesters! How will we harvest without the message of the Cross burning on our hearts? How will we bring in the Great End-Time Harvest without fellowshipping with the Lamb’s Sufferings and beholding the Lamb who is in the center of Heaven (Rev. 5:6)?

Sons who gather the Harvest must be able to declare the message of the Cross in a way that brings trembling to a people who do not know the Lord. Jesus said, the Harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few (Mt. 9:38). The apostolic laborers are few. Those who carry the apostolic message of the Cross of Jesus Christ are few. Laborers are not only endued with the power of the Kingdom, but the message of the Kingdom – the Cross.

Hello.  This is the beginning of the revealing of my heart. I am a little shy so this is a bit uncomfortable, but I am attempting to let my guard down and open up.  Please bear with me, my writing is pretty weak.  I am an amateur journaler/blogger.  Yet hopefully this is just a small beginning to build upon.  

So, the reason I am here is because I feel like I have unique things to write. My desire is to be a co-creator with God by partnering with and expressing His creative heart through writing. Even though my words may be weak, I want to write things of eternal significance and reveal what is beyond the veil of the temporal and natural. I want to bring the words, thoughts, and ideas of Heaven onto the Earth by prayerfully tapping into the things never heard before, prepared for us - the “things” Paul wrote of in 1 Cor. 2:9-10. 

One of God’s fundamental names is Creator. ”In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth” (Gen. 1:1). Creativity was the Bible’s first characteristic attributed to God. By nature, God is creative, doing things we have never seen before. He loves to fascinate His people. 

Lets say if we had to analyze Jesus’ perfect brain, would He be left or right brained? I think He would probably be equally balanced – both right-brained (creative in thought) and left-brained (logical in thought). God seems to be both/and - “creatively logical.” I do not want these two things to be seperate.  This is the vision of my heart creatively logical, like Jesus. 

So, this blog will be creative. Like Jesus, who was the intercessory oracle of the Father in creation (John 1:1), I want to be an expression of the Father’s heart through creative writing.
