God, I need you, need you, need you. Take my mind and rework it to be filled with the desires and passions of your own heart. Spirit of the living Son - it is such a privilege to have you! You, God, who has so many names to mark and define the so many
aspects of your endless nature, the so many figures of redemptive protection you cover us in.
I need more faith. I need more knowledge so I can speak and act in Your influence in every moment of my busy days. Build me up. Strengthen me. Cause
me to hunger even more groanfully for you!
You satisfy like nothing else on this earth. You garner admiration for all Your works even if they admirees do not acknowledge the artist. You are loved by so many, even, I think, those
who have You confused under the discord of Christian disunity. God be blessed.
How can I bless You more??? You have blessed me with so much!!!!
I can not ask for more blessings, nor for others... just for the world's eyes
to be opened to the blessings that You have LAVISHED on us all - already!!!!
Shine in my hometown of Thames. Shine in New Zealand. Shine in every country! Raise up warriors to fight with the weapons You hold in Your hands.
This
weeks memory verse: The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have devine power to demolish strongholds. We demolish arguments and every pretense that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and take captive every
thought to make it obedient to Jesus Christ. 2 Cor 9 7,8?
I am about to throw up from a vomiting and diarrhea bug that I have picked up from work.
It is unpleasant to say the least, but I am reminded that ridding ourselves of viruses is
not easy work. The body's response is to rally to the offender with fighter cells, and build memory cells to stand as a barrier to the virus for the next time it is introduced. Work this in me, Lord.
I am tired. Keep me from being over
run. Build me up again. I get scared so often when I look around me. Keep my eyes on You, and Your power at work in me and all those who believe and act on Your words. Teach me how You build Your story into everthing about us. Open my eyes even wider!!! And
settle my stomach.
