Hunger like never before

What a great time of learning! I enjoyed this weekends time in God's word so very much. I attended a conference held at a local church. Kay Arthur was the speaker. I have taken a few of the precept courses and have learned so much with them. More importantly the word of God is taking a very different place in my life and heart. I love Jesus. That part has always come easy. He died for me, to ransom me. Rescued me from a very dark place. I love God, God sent Him for me and always knew of His plan to send salvation for the world. I have always known and felt His word is important and necessary for life. But only recently am I developing a genuine LOVE, and very strong desire to know it. I want to know all that He has to say to me. His word is coming alive to me in so many new ways. I want to know Him like never before. My heart is hungry for His truth. His words. His wisdom. My prayer the last couple of days has been for a very tight leash. I want discipline when necessary. I want for my Father in heaven to keep me near. I do not want to stray. I love where I am. I know that my days will be filled with the challenges that have so many times caused me to lose focus. But I want quick correction.
