| I could stand forever in worship at your feet
and still not find the words to say how much you mean to me.
I could sit down at your table with all that you provide,
feasting of you every day and not be satisfied.
You're more than I want,
You're more than I need
You're more than enough, yet my heart's crying out....
** I need more of You, I want more of You, I can't get enough of You.**
(what was on my mind this morning...hopefully all day...I need YOU, Lord) | | |
| As I read My Utmost For His Highest yesterday morning, it spoke of making plans without including God. I've done a lot of that in my lifetime. Recently, I made the decision to take a situation that I'd had in my own hands (and not been taking care of well) and give it back to God to do with it what He wills to do with it. Results? They remain to be seen, but so far, [no suprise here] God has been faithful! Beauty for ashes, peace for despair...
Verse 5 of the passage below was the reference for the devotion, but as I read around it, I realized it spoke directly to me and my life right now. Amazing how the power of the Word does that....

Psalm 37
3 Trust in the LORD and do good;
dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture.
4 Delight yourself in the LORD
and he will give you the desires of your heart.
5 Commit your way to the LORD ;
trust in him and he will do this:
6 He will make your righteousness shine like the dawn,
the justice of your cause like the noonday sun.
7 Be still before the LORD and wait patiently for him;
do not fret when men succeed in their ways,
when they carry out their wicked schemes.
23 If the LORD delights in a man's way,
he makes his steps firm;
24 though he stumble, he will not fall,
for the LORD upholds him with his hand.
25 I was young and now I am old,
yet I have never seen the righteous forsaken
or their children begging bread.

| change is good. it's not always easy, but usually necessary. sometimes things workout the way you think they will, but often they don't. thought I'd share with you the enlightenment I received this morning from my book.
O God, I have tasted Thy goodness, and it has both satisfied me and made me thirsty for more. I am painfully conscious of my need of further greace. I am ahsamed of my lack of desire. O God, the Triune God, I want to want Thee; I long to be filled with longing; I thirst to be made more thirsty still. Show me Thy glory, I pray Thee, that so I may know Thee indeed. Begin in mercy a new work of love within me. Say to my soul, "Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away." Then give me grace to rise and follow Thee up from this misty lowland where I have wandered so long. In Jesus' name, Amen. | | |
| Philippians 2
13For God is working in you, giving you the desire to obey him and the power to do what pleases him.
14In everything you do, stay away from complaining and arguing, 15so that no one can speak a word of blame against you. You are to live clean, innocent lives as children of God in a dark world full of crooked and perverse people. Let your lives shine brightly before them.
My encouragement today is to all of you (and me) who find themselves at home this summer, rather than overseas...it's an adjustment to be where you are, hearing all the cool stories of friends' adventures in Botswana, Thailand, Panama, or New Zealand. Yet God has called us each to be a light wherever we are. He's given us His word and the promise that He is at work within us, giving us everything we need to walk blamelessly as his children. I am excited for the summer and pray that we'd all be open to the vast array of ministry opportunities that are before us in each of our communities. Make a prayer list and put your city on it, your family, your school, and your friends who are or will be going on missionary trips. I'm always here if you need prayer...just send me an e-mail or give me a call. love you all. | | |
