Thy Liberty.

Jesus answered, “If you knew the generosity of God and who I am, you would be asking me for a drink, and I would give you fresh, living water.” -John 4:10 (msg)

“It is because we are not near enough to Thee to partake of thy liberty that we want a liberty of our own different from thine.” -George MacDonald

If we could only see Glory, Him – Pure Glory -right in front of us – all around and in us, and cling to Him with everything we are – instead of clinging to the reflection of Him, we would no longer settle for the reflection; we would stake our lives on Him alone… and find Liberty.

“Could you not give me some sign, or tell me something about you that never changes, or some other way to know you, or thing to know you by?” – “No, Curdie: that would be to keep you from knowing me. You must know me in quite another way from that. It would not be the least use to you or me either if I were to make you know me in that way. It would be but to know the sign of me – not to know me myself.” -GM

Live in me. Make your home in me as I do in you. -Jesus
