In the Bible you would find God's greatest prophets in the wilderness. There seems to be this connection between great men and wilderness. The wilderness is a place where hunger and desperation for God is expressed. It is a place of hunger, abandonment, separation, emptiness and death. It is desperation that drives us to the wilderness, that cry in our heart that "I rather see God or die here". Yes the wilderness is a place of hunger and desperation. I am not talking about a physical wilderness but a spiritual one. I am talking about leaving your life (who you are and the things you do) and just get lost there in the spirit, crying out desperately for God.

You are tired of of your shallow spiritual life, you want more, just more of God. You begin to become obsess with the desire for more of God. You turn in your bed, troubled with that desire, your heart continue to cry "please more, I want to know you more, reveal yourself to me". Even while you sleep you wake up in the midnight to hear yourself still crying unconsciously "Lord I want to know you". You become so obsess with the desire to know Him that you begin to hate every other thing, you begin to loss interest in every other thing. Little by little you are drifting away, away from things you use to do, even away from your social life. You can't bear to be joking and socializing with people while that hunger continued to burn you inside. You feel unrest while you are among friends wasting away time, you just can't remain with them.

"No! I must know Him, I must know Him" those thought posses your mind, they troubles you, they are driving you mad. Like a wild hungry lion you begin to devour and explore everything that might lead you to knowing Him. You realize you have no time to do the things you use to do before, all your mind is just focus on knowing Him. You begin to even hate life itself, so you found yourself in the wilderness, starving yourself of life - of the chance to do what others are doing. You just can't bear to just continue living life without knowing Him, it is either you die or know Him. So there you lay in the wilderness, wasting away in hunger and deprivation.

You must know Him, yes you must know Him. You gathered all the materials that your hand can reach, materials that points you to Him. Restlessly you search and unrelenting you continued, while each night you cry out for Him. You are loosing yourself, you know you are loosing yourself but you don't care, for you must know Him. And right there in the wilderness God is draining you of yourself, emptying you because it is your fullness that has prevent Him to fill you with Him. All this while you were so busy with your life, busy with religion and as a result He couldn't reveal Himself to you. Now here in the wilderness He had gotten you where He wants you and He must drain you of yourself in order to fill you with Himself.

So there in the wilderness you thought you were dying but no, something greater is happening to you, something wonderful. It was Him that put that desire in you, and as you nurtured it and allow it posses you, it brought you to the wilderness where God wants you. And now God empties you and you feel like you are going to die. The devil comes to tempt you, to make you run, run away from the wilderness and abandon God there. Just when you are so close to God revealing Himself to you, you suddenly develop the desire to leave the wilderness and go and mingle with the world, get entangled in religious activities and the mundane things of the world. But you overcame because you are an overcomer. You remain there and allow yourself die and out of that death came life, yes the Life reveals Himself to you. You found what your soul hungers for, here is He, the one you have been seeking to know Alas! Alas! Oh, It's worth it, it is worth all the suffering and sacrifice.

My friend is gay and he says it is an attribute of god too. Do you agree he is experiencing god too?

It is God's love that has made me soft, I can't help it. I use to be a very tough person. But when I came to experience God love, it made me soft, it overwhelms me with such sweetness. His love is so great that it could humble the mightiest and toughest man.

Why don't you come and experience it yourself, it would transform you completely.

Oh, about your friend- is that the excuse you give yourself?
Whenever you find somebody who is truly experiencing God, you would turn your face and remember those who are bringing shame to His name and then you tell yourself "this cannot be true"

Is that the deception you choose to imprison yourself?
Don't you know that for every good product there is always a fake out there, but that doesn't mean the original doesn't exist.

So you've chosen to deceive yourself and miss out from experiencing God's wonderful love.

And how has that been going for you?
Isn't that why you are so frustrated?
