To know you is to want to know you more...

Wooo! I love this song by Casting Crowns. *runs off to find lyrics*

A-ha! Here they are!

*copy*

*paste*

To know you is never worry for my life, and
To know you is to never to give in or compromise
To know you is to want to tell the world about you
Cause I can't live without you

To know you is to hear your voice when you are calling
To know you is to catch my brother when he is falling
To know you is to feel the pain of the broken hearted
Cause they can't live with out you.

More than my next breath
More than life or death
All reaching for, I live my life to know you more
I leave it all behind, you are all that satisfies
To know you is to want to know you more
To know you is to want to know you more


To know you is to ache for more than ordinary
To know you is to look beyond the temporary
To know you is believing that you will be enough
Cause there is no life without you

Chorus:

All this life could offer me, could not compare to you
Compare to you
And I count it all as lost, compared to knowing you
Knowing you

Chorus:

Compared to you
Compared to you
And I count it all as lost, compared to knowing you
Knowing you
And I count it all as lost, compared to knowing you
Knowing you

This is so true. The more I learn about God, the more I realize how incredibly awesome He is...then I just want to get to know Him better. Every time I get the tiniest little bite of knowledge about Christ and His character/love/promises/anything I just want to get to know Him better. He will constantly be a mystery to me.








Steve Tecklenberg, a speaker at EIG was talking about this. Our brain is a tiny little box. And God will never ever fit in it. I am so happy about that. Really. What type of God would God be if we understood Him all the time and He was like us? What type of God would he be if we learned everything about Him? What would be special about our quiet times with Him in the morning? What would he teach us?

A thousand lifetimes. We could live a thousand life times and never understand Him.

We can only comprehend earthly things. I am so glad we don't have an earthly God. I am so glad that we have a God whose mercy we cannot comprehend. I am so glad that His character is so infinite that we cannot wrap our minds around it. I am so glad we have a God whose love we cannot replicate. Praise the Lord today that we will never understand Him.
