Spinning in Love!

I feel like I just cannot get enough of God! I am sitting in the middle of the library and I just want to scream so loud and run around and dance so insanely crazy, because I am so in love!! I am SO in love with Jesus Christ! I know that He loves me...and I am soo thrilled that He loves me...but I am so excited and thrilled that I have the FREEDOM to love HIM!! This is me all the time now.. Kim Walker was so right when she said "..you will never be the same.." after you fully grasp the Love of God. And I doubt that I have fully grasped it yet either. Ahhh, so insane.
I imagine myself as a little girl who is standing in the middle of a field of flowers on a warm sunny day, with my hands high in the air, spinning around until I fall over...smiling and laughing the entire time. :) I just want to dance around and worship my King....EVERY second of EVERY day.
Do you think people would stare at me weirdly?

People would look at you like you are crazy. Joy has been lost in our world as we look out for number one and try to gain so much stuff here on earth. We worry so much about ourselves and don't think about our purpose here on earth. God is a jealous God, he wants our all and we have the honor of serving the Creator and giving everything to Him. He does not have to give us anything in return, everything is His, but He entrust us with so much of His and despite our continued failure to give it all completely to Him, He still blesses us! I hate that I'm not always in awe of God. So many times I get stuck on me, when it's all about God and when we truly think about everything He has done for us, how are we not turning this world upside down with our joy and our passion?! Do we really believe that what we believe is really real? If so, we should be filled with a never-ending joy, even in our sufferings, cause we then know that God works all things out for good. Pain, it's still there, but we can find joy in knowing that "when we have stood the test, we will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love Him." James 1:12 For the Lord has done great things for us and we are filled with JOY!!!!!

Girl, I TOTALLY understand! I've actually experienced some times that I'm so overwhelmed with joy because of my Savior's love that I laugh out loud! I dance a heck of a lot too! And yes, I get weird stares as well. But I'll become even more undignified than this!!!
