Are you dazzled by God?

I am not sure of the exact author of this quote. I heard it on a message given by Tedd Tripp entitled "Giving Your Children a Vision of God." Regardless of the author, the quote is right on!

“Ecstasy and delight are essential for the believer’s soul and they promote satisfaction. We are not meant to live without spiritual exhilaration and the Christian who goes a long time without the experience of heartwarming will soon find himself tempted to have his emotions satisfied with earthly things and not as he ought in the Spirit of God. The soul is so constituted that it craves fulfillment from things outside itself and will embrace earthly joys for satisfaction when it cannot reach spiritual ones. The believer is in spiritual danger if he allows himself to go for any length of time without tasting the love of Christ and without savoring the felt comforts of the Savior’s presence. When Christ ceases to fill the heart with satisfaction, our souls will go in silent search of other lovers."

How long has it been since you have tasted of the love of Chirst and savored the comforts of His presence? "As for me I shall behold your face in righteousness; when I awake, I shall be satisfied with your likeness." (Psalm 17:15)
