As I look out the window this morning............the sun glistens through the trees and I watch the tree tops sway to their own rhythm. But it is me who feels a void.............my heart I left in Israel!
But I know these feelings I have for that Country is not of my own will........there is very little that I have chosen for myself. Because their is a God in heaven who is moving...........speaking and who still performs miracles today! He is the one who appoints my lot and determines my path. He himself has placed HIS desires in my heart; for the apple of his eye........."Israel."
Today was a; "Revelation," for me in my quiet time this morning.............God has been circling me with the same question for months: "Robbie, what do you truly desire?" For months I have been coming up with numerous answers: " to know Him more,.........to be more Christ-like,........to be His friend,...........to be a better Christian!!!

What I DESIRE................for myself I CANNOT attain, BUT.....what HE DESIRES in me HE can attain for me!
Maybe what we all need in 2012 is a REVELATION...........of the truth.........that because of our own flesh.........we DO NOT have the ABILITY to place God at the center of our life! God himself has to place himself there!
Maybe this day we could ask together.............with our hands held out OPEN.......for the gifts that He has for us. For Him to take our eyes and fix them upon HIM!
As the rain moves in and the sky turns grey............... it's me who whispers; "make this day a day of of obedience, a day of spiritual joy and peace.
And through each small death of our flesh........God perplexes His Kingdom forward.
Let us not be afraid when life seems the heavy because He is my father and yours.............we shall not be afraid!
all is well my sweet friends,
