Day eight: Someone I want to meet

Hmmm.....who is someone I would like to meet? JESUS!

Dear Jesus,
I would love to meet you! I'm looking forward to the day that I can stand before you. I also fear that day in a sense, because I want you to be proud of me, and what if you aren't? I mean, what if I have been a total failure? What if you look at me and say I have been lukewarm? God, that scares me, but it also challenges me and pushes me forward, making me want to be the best I can be for YOU. I want to kick myself sometimes, because I don't get excited about meeting you, but why shouldn't I? The thought of seeing you face to face should be what drives me on, what makes me strive to be better and more like you. Shouldn't my main goal in life be to hear the words, "Well done my good and faithful servant?" How "well" do I think I'm doing? How can I be better for you God? How can I make my life more beautiful in your eyes? You look at my mess and see something useful...how can I be a vessel for you? Help me to be more righteous and in love with you. Help my life to be something that you smile upon. Help me to live solely for YOUR glory, not my own. I am nothing in your presence, and my life should be nothing but exalting YOUR name and YOUR sovereignty! Thank you so much for loving me and giving your perfect self for my wretched being. I love you! Please give me strength and a desire to know you more, and for my love to grow stronger and stronger every day. When I come into Your presence, I want you to be pleased in what you see.

Because of You,
Becca
