How is it that we can lose the wonder of God? Have we been so captivated by the mundane the things we can easily see and touch that we have lost sight of the godly things that require a little more effort to see? God tells us simply that we will find Him when we search for Him. Its not that it is hard; its just that we have to decide and then put forth the effort to do it.
In this book, you wont find a list; it is really nothing more than stories I have written of the wonder I found as I searched. I dont pastor a mega church. I am just an ordinary guy who draws an ordinary paycheck that has chosen to spend a good amount of his leisure time searching.
God does not reserve His wonder for mega church pastors. He reserves it for those who will search. It is within the reach of any who are thirsty enough to come; and for those who choose to come, they will find the Lost Wonder.
About the author
For years I struggled with cravings that were contrary to
the new nature I was supposed to have as a Christian. I
knew that Jesus came that we might have life, so why didn’t
I have it. Why did the old sometimes still appeal? Why did
I let it cool the passion I had for God? Why instead, had the
new not forced out the old? Had I missed something along
the way? I came to point where I had to know.
I’m glad I came to that point. Jesus’ words are true; “If anyone
is thirsty let him come to me and drink”. I knew what it was
like to come to Him; my problem was that I allowed myself
to get distracted from coming. When we come to Him, He gives birth to a new nature in us. To the extent that we feed
it, it will grow. If we neglect feeding it, it will wither.
He really did come that we might have life; He came to give
us a new nature. And with that new nature comes a whole
’New Set of Cravings’.
