This
morning during my morning exercise I saw a friend and my greeting was “what do
I have to do to be like you?” He responded “keep on praising God.” I will carry
this thought throughout my day. Better
still throughout my life!
Most Holy and All Wise God!…Keeper of heaven and
earth!… Shepherd of the flock!… my God of hope!... I come wit arms raised and
knees bowed!...Lord God!...I give U thanks for the glow of the morning
sun!...and thanks for yur loving arms wrapped around me while I crossed over my
midnight!...Lord God!...I seek yur Holy presence!...the presence of yur peace
and joy!...I know Lord God!...yur presence keeps me moving!...my soul won’t rest
till I reach higher ground!...I want to run this race with direction and
purpose!...Lord God!...my spirit won’t let go!...
“Blessed is the
man who trusts in the Lord, And whose hope is the Lord. For
he shall be like a tree planted by the waters, Which spreads out its roots by
the river, And will not fear when heat comes; But its leaf will be green,
And will not be anxious in the year of drought, Nor will cease from yielding
fruit.”
…Lord God!... wheew!…speak to my
heart!...order my steps!...I need yur favor!...Lord God!...I need the promise
of yur word!...let yur will be done!...I gonna stay close!...I can’t do it by
myself!...when my yesterday tried to shadow my day!...the times when life
gets me down!...Lord God!...I’m gonna keep my trust in U!...U said it…and I
believe it!...I’m gonna reach up and grab my blessings!...I stretch my hands to
thee!...yes Lord!...yes Lord!...U’r the God of second chance!...Lord
God!...consume my heart with yur glory!... there's nothing I want more than for
U to put yur hands over me!...Lord God!...I desire yur sweet Holy
Spirit!...fill this thirst in my heart!... fill my heart with yur power!...
…hallelujah!...
hallelujah!... I want U Lord God!...Lord God!...I call out yur
name!...the name that make demons disappear!...the name that move
mountains!....bring down the giants!...Lord God!...when my life is in transition!...when
the things need to be rearrange!...when I need shelter from the
rain!...I call yur name!...Lord God!...cover my wrong!...open up my
plate to receive yur grace!...take the stuff I have messed up!...and let me
walk in victory wit yur plans for me!...give me authority!... give
me yur power!...all in the name of yur darling son!...Jesus!... wheew!…
…yes
Jesus!...this purpose is real!...
Lord
God I want U to know!... flowing from my heart is gratefulness!...and I’m asking
U to keep me in yur presence!...Lord God!... yur presence is the fullness of my
joy!...U’re our wonderful God of Hope!…and when it’s All! said and done!...
looking for a home in yur Kingdom where the sweet Sabbath has no end!…in the
precious name of Jesus!
Amen
