“With a strong hand, God grabs my garment. He grips me by the collar of my tunic” (Job 30:18 NLT).
Ever had the stuffing shaken out of you by the Lord?
Ever had Him get your attention—your full attention?
Ever had God place His hands on your shoulders, turn your face to Him, ask you to look Him square in the eye?
And once He had your attention, what He showed you was life changing.
And when you finally chose to Him fully in the face, you were rewarded with the peace that comes from being in His presence.
And when the discipline is over, the embarrassment, shame and conviction left, the complete knowledge of Christ’s love for you remained.
And when the stuffing was lying all around you, leaving just you and the Lord, nothing in between the two of you…you found He is all you need.
