“The true story of every person in this world is not the story you see, the external story. The true story of each person is the journey of his or her heart.”
– John Eldredge,The Sacred Romance: Drawing Closer to the Heart of God
I have come to the conclusion that this is what the World Race is.
Yes it is a journey to seek out people and share the gospel and love of Christ, but first and foremost it is a journey of the heart.
My heart was broken for the people of Port Elizabeth this month, it was broken for those who don't know the love of a father whose pursuit of their heart is so relentless.
Relentless pursuit.
That is the message my heart has been needing to hear.
I am loved by a father who died on the cross with me in mind.
Through everything no matter how far I strayed from him, He was relentless in His pursuit for my heart. No sin, no shame, no past and no pain can separate me from the love of God.
I am worthy of the love of my Heavenly Father, he pursues me with a love that exceeds any love I could ever imagine.
In the same way Christ pursues me I want to run after Him with all that I have!
"God you pursue me, with power and glory. Unstoppable love that never ends."
