Being on holiday gives me some time to read the books I have been told to read, listen to the messages people have given me and to catch up on some DVDs. So far one of the highlights has been re visiting Sam Storms "One Thing". I had forgotten how good the book is. His previous book "Pleasures forevermore" is also a good read. In both books Sam lifts the reader into greater enjoyment and passion for God. Here is one of my favourite bits:
"You were made to be enchanted, enamoured, engrossed with God, enthralled, enraptured, entranced with God, enravished, excited, enticed with God, astonished, amazed, awed with God, astounded, absorbed, agog with God, beguiled and bedazzled, startled and staggered, smitten and stunned, stupified and spellbound, charmed and consumed, thrilled and thunderstuck, obsessed and preoccupied, intrigued and impassioned, overwhelmed and overwrought, gripped and rapt, enthused and electrified tantalized, mesmerized and monopolised, fascinated, captivated, intoxicated, infatuated and exhilarated ... with God!"
(Sam Storms, One Thing, page 148)
