I Can Never Get Enough

As we are moving towards the holiday season, I am getting some holiday feeling now, wanting to spend time with people I love, being thankful for what God has been doing in my life. Tomorrow is thanksgiving, I am extremely happy that I will be celebrating this year's Thanksgiving with my mentor, what a blessing! I think one good thing about being an International during the holidays is that you have the chance to celebrate with different people/families each year, even though I really miss home, but I am still thankful for my heavenly family around the world.

What I am most thankful for is Jesus, who gives me life and walking with me everyday. This morning, when I was baking some bread and praying, one thought came to my mind is that I can never get enough of Jesus. With Jesus, it is enough, but everyday, He is giving me life and delighting my life. As I was thinking the three years since I became a believer, God has been working in so many aspects of my life, and He is still working! How amazing that I know my God is giving me living water everyday.

We may not at the spiritual peak all the time, we might feel dry and tired many times, but I know that God's word is alive. When I was studying a passage this week, I found that I have already studied the same scriptures several weeks ago, so I was thinking "Well, maybe I should keep moving on to the next passage." But after my mentor and I started our study, we had really deep discussions for about an hour on the passage that I thought I have read well, and we had several questions that we had never thought before. God was giving us new thoughts that we can apply to our life that day. I felt God was speaking to me how proud I was and even though the same scriptures can give me different delights in different time or occasions. Wow, how amazing is God's word! I truly need to confess my pride and ask for God's forgiveness, and I truly felt that I can never get enough of Him. And by God's grace that He is correcting me and teaching me which really comforts my heart, His teaching makes me feel His love for me.

May the Lord help us to grow in Him day by day. By His grace, may we be like deer pant for water pant for Him. Thank you Jesus for being the everlasting God and living water!

Have a blessed Thanksgiving!
