The mention of your name.

"Filled with wonder, awestruck wonder, at the mention of Your Name."

I sang that line last night in a mini worship circle with 2 of my best friends last night and it hit me, is that really true?  Am i honestly filled with wonder every time i hear the name "Jesus"?  I should be.  I should almost fall to my knees every time i think of him, anytime i think of the idea of him i should be filled awestruck wonder that its hard for me to even think straight.  

"For the word of God is living and active.  Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.  Nothing in all creation is hidden from God's sight.  Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give account."

-Hebrews 4:12-13

I cant even take that verse.  His word, HIS WORD, is that powerful, it can penetrate even the hardest of hearts.  No debate, no intellectual thought could ever win over the truth of God.  If his word is that powerful, what does that make him?

"Men swear by someone greater than themselves, and the oath confirms what is said and puts an end to all argument   Because God wanted to make the unchanging nature of his purpose every clear to the heirs of what was promised,  he confirmed it with an oath.  God did this so that, by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled to take hold of the hope offered to us may be greatly encouraged.  We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure.  It enters the inner sanctuary behind the curtain, where Jesus, who went before us, has entered on our behalf.  He has become a high priest forever, in the order of Melchizedek."

-Hebrews 6:16-20

"In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.  Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.  And God said, "let there because light," and there was light."

-Genesis 1:1-3

He is the beginning and he is the end, the author and the publicist, My savior, my God, my father, my best friend. Wonder fills my veins when i think about the God i serve, the awesome-ness of who he is, and i dont even know the half of it.  When i think about what it will be like to stand before him and see his face, my mind gets scattered because i cannot even imagine, i know i will not be able to even behold his glory.  My face will be forever at his feet in total admiration.  He is the only one worthy of high praise, the only one worthy of ALL my affection and all my attention.  Everything i am shakes at the mention of his name, and it will from now on.  I will not let myself become complacent of where i'm at with Him.  I want to constantly grow and know more about Him.  I want to constantly be more intimate with Him and have my face planted at his beautiful feet from the time i wake up to the time i go to sleep.

My God's name has more power than any thing imaginable.  

I'm filled with awestruck wonder, at the mention of your name.
