To Know

John 1:5 (NIV) 
5 The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood it. 
Understanding is moving toward the light
To know is to live

Become


John 1:12 (New International Version)  12Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God—

Receive, believe, and become

Receiving

Receiving is more than believing, like climbing on a bike and riding is more than just looking at a picture of one in a catalog.  

Our Hearts Burning

Luke 24:32 32They asked each other, "Were not our hearts burning within us while he talked with us on the road and opened the Scriptures to us?"

Fiery tongue of the Spirit
Word given and opened
Warming the heart
As Spirit melds with spirit
New life takes form

They Recognized

Luke 24:30-31(NIV) 30When he was at the table with them, he took bread, gave thanks, broke it and began to give it to them. 31Then their eyes were opened and they recognized him, and he disappeared from their sight. 
Their eyes were opened
To see Him vanish
Making way for the Spirit
He is still seen
But in a different way
With indwelling Spirit
Until the day He reappears

True Balance

True balance is when heart and life both align and agree with God.
