Oh To Be Meditations
Many of Jesus' disciples heard him and said, “This is too hard for anyone to understand.” Jesus knew that his disciples were grumbling. So he asked, “Does this bother you? What if you should see the Son of Man go up to heaven where he came from?The Spirit is the one who gives life! Human strength can do nothing. The words that I have spoken to you are from that life-giving Spirit. But some of you refuse to have faith in me.” Jesus said this, because from the beginning he knew who would have faith in him. He also knew which one would betray him. Then Jesus said, “You cannot come to me, unless the Father makes you want to come. That is why I have told these things to all of you.” Because of what Jesus said, many of his disciples turned their backs on him and stopped following him. Jesus then asked his twelve disciples if they also were going to leave him. Simon Peter answered, “Lord, there is no one else that we can go to! Your words give eternal life. We have faith in you, and we are sure that you are God's Holy One.” I feel the stare of Christ as He asks the same questions to his modern disciples today. All I can say Lord Jesus is: I will not leave you, I follow you anywhere. I just want you and nothing else. I'm caught up in Your presence, I just want to sit here at Your feet, I'm caught up in this holy moment. I never want to leave. Oh, I'm not here for blessing Jesus, You don't owe me anything, More than anything that You can do I just want You. I'm sorry when I've just gone through the motions, I'm sorry when I just sang another song. Take me back to where we started I open up my heart to You. I'm sorry when I've come with my agenda, I'm sorry when I forgot that You're enough. Take me back to where we started, I open up my heart to You I'm caught up in Your presence I just want to sit here at Your feet I'm caught up in this holy moment. I never want to leave. Oh, I'm not here for blessings Jesus, You don't owe me anything. More than anything that You can do I just want You.
