What's the One Thing???

Psalm 27:4

4 One thing I ask of the LORD,
this is what I seek:
that I may dwell in the house of the LORD
all the days of my life,
to gaze upon the beauty of the LORD
and to seek him in his temple.
(from New International Version)

Many years ago, my walk with God changed drastically. I left religion behind, and pursued a Person. A quest to gaze on the beauty of the man Christ Jesus. My search for intimacy with God through His Son Jesus has been quite the journey so far, but worth any cost in my humble opinion, although I must say, in the current time we live in and the future, the cost will become far greater than we can imagine. All we feel we have given up to pursue God will seem like nothing, most likely. I know He tells us to count the cost....I don't know if I have done that fully. I just have to try and be prepared for it to possibly mean "at the cost of everything". I just know I have set my face towards Him. I pray for help to finish my race.

I wish I had started this when I first went to Jamaica. Sometimes the jewels God gives you is forgotten and lost in the daily drama of life. I will journal the beginning of that adventure just to remind myself of the treasure I found there and to introduce some of the most precious people I know in this life. So off we go....
