This
driving, yet intimate collection of songs flow from an encounter Julie had
while singing with her team at IHOP.
"We
were singing through Revelation 4:1. 'I looked and behold a door standing open
in heaven and…a voice saying…Come up here, and I will show you things which
must take place after this.' Something inside me just leaped and I knew, this
is mine, this is for me, God you said the door is open. Here I am."
"In
a new way, I believed that God wanted to encounter me as much as He wanted to
speak to preachers, the prophetic voices and other leaders. So much of my life
has been spent saying, 'I want to know God like so and so.' Then one day I just
said this is mine and I am going for it."….said Julie.
After
that, Julie says she began a different kind of pursuit. Dreams were given and
songs began to flow.
The
project's intensely intimate title track "Longing For The Day," connects into
the core of a believer's heart, the need to see Jesus face to face longing for
His return!
"I
Want To Know God" draws the listener to simply be with God, to sit with Him and
share the secrets of His heart.
This
recording also includes a "bonus" track on which Julie shares a dream she had
which inspired her to write many of these songs.
