FJWL_01:218
         (Dad:) The Lord is calling you to His bosom. He's calling you to be His bride. The concern you have that you don't feel close to Jesus is the result of the Lord Himself actually putting that desire in your heart to love Him more. So you are closer, just because you have that desire to be closer. He's putting that aching feeling in your heart.
         So don't get down and depressed about it. He's making love to you and you're responding. He's drawing you closer to Him, and you are in His arms. He's been wooing you, and that's why you feel the need to be closer to Him. That's why you feel the need to feel Him, because He's been wanting you and placing that burden on your heart.
         So just keep following Him. He wants you full-time as His on-fire disciple! He wants not only your full-time service, but He wants your full heart! He wants you to be wholly His, one hundred percent. He's calling you to step out now and be an Endtime witness in His Endtime army, alive and burning for Him, a heart aflame!
         So come on, let's go! Let's burn for Jesus! I know you can do it because you've got Jesus! I'm counting on you!
