seize

"over a hundred years ago in the Deep South, a phrase so common in our Christian culture today, born again, was seldom or never used. rather, the phrase used to describe the breakthrough into a personal relationship with Jesus Christ was, 'i was seized by the power of a great affection.' these words describe both the initiative of God and the explosion within the heart of Jesus..." - brennan manning, ragamuffin gospel.

i would love to be seized by the power of His great affection.

my heart would explode.
