what lights me up

Over the past few weeks, I've been discovering more and more that I'm just set on fire when I help/prayfor/offer advice to people. It's amazing - I can be feeling so down, someone will start telling me about a problem and BOOM, I can just feel God washing everything away and pushing me to tell them stuff. It's crazy, and it's not like I'm having issues... just normal everyday life is enough to wear a person down.

It seems like the times God really fills me up are the times when I'm racing to do His will. Not just in a desire sense, but in a practical sense. I guess what really lights up that passion within me is helping other people discover the freedom and healing that God's given me. It has to be just an overflow of the joy and thankfulness in my heart - I want everyone to know what God has done for me, but more than that, I want people to experience it for themselves.

I've already encountered the boundaries of my comfort zone here, and I'm really praying that I can overcome it. I was quite literally hit witht he fear of God the other day, after praying about some stuff... simply because of what I knew next. It was a giddy terror - a glimpse of power so far beyond comprehension that I was almost paralyzed in fear and wonder. Even now, all I want to do is sit in God's presence.
