connect to the thoughts of the source

Excerpts from the Bolz Ministries Christmas newsletter:

   "One of the things that makes your faith so powerful is that you get to connect to the thoughts of our eternal Father in heaven and know what he wants. You can get in touch with his original plans and ideas. We have this amazing eternal God who began to imagine and creatively think about all of heaven and earth for millions of years (or for eternity) before it was ever manifest. He has an original intention and design..."

   "We can't transform something unless we see what it is supposed to be. Jesus saw what the world and all of us were supposed to look like, not just what we could be. He died and resurrected for the vision of restoration for humanity and the original vision He had for us."

   "As Christians when you start to really grow in the depth of His word and relationship to Him you can feel the gap between what is and what He desires. This creates a place of intercession, revelational thinking, and a hope that mature believers carry. We can feel not only what God wants, but we start to feel a countdown or an inward groaning of prayer for it to manifest."
