Experiencing the Depths of Jesus Christ - Jeanne Guyon

Chapter 1 - from the Shallows to the Depths page 1-5 We have all been called to the depths of Christ just as surely as we have been called to salvation. this deep inward relationship with Jesus is the turning and yielding of your heart to the LORD; the expression of loving within your heart for him. "Pray without Ceasing" - 1 thess 5:17 "watch and pray" Mark 13:33,37 "I counsel you to buy from me gold tried in the fire that you may be rick" Rev 3:18 Come to the living waters, not digging wells that have no water: John 7:37; Jere 2:13 The only way to be perfect is to walk in the presence of God.

Psalm 1 (NKJV)

BOOK ONE Psalms 1–41 The Way of the Righteous and the End of the Ungodly 1 Blessed is the man Who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, Nor stands in the path of sinners, Nor sits in the seat of the scornful; 2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord, And in His law he meditates day and night. 3 He shall be like a tree Planted by the rivers of water, That brings forth its fruit in its season, Whose leaf also shall not wither; And whatever he does shall prosper. 4 The ungodly are not so, But are like the chaff which the wind drives away. 5 Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, Nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous. 6 For the Lord knows the way of the righteous, But the way of the ungodly shall perish.
