30 Seconds In His Presence, Paperback/Terry Macalmon

"I can't live without His presence. I'm not talking about listening to or singing songs that include lyrics about His presence. I'm not talking about an emotional frenzy that is the result of a beat-driven, full of the flesh "worship service". I'm not talking about the latest supposed "cutting edge" church experience where talented musicians get together on any given Tuesday night to write a new contemporary Christian "hit" for the following Sunday that somehow goes on to sweep the nation. I'm not even talking about the most beautiful of melodies and lyrics ever written, whatever you may deem that to be in your own musical taste and experience. I'm talking about His presence...the tangible, unmistakable, un-counterfeit-able, healing, soul-changing, manifest presence of God. All of the above things mentioned may contain it but there are no guarantee of it in and of themselves. Think of it...the glory of heaven touching earth...the attendance of the Creator of the universe...THIS IS ESSENCE OF LIFE TO ME."
