Waiting quietly.
Anticipating eagerly.
Vowing to be still. And listen.
Oh, Lord, pour down on me like rain.
Speak to my spirit.
Flood my soul with the quiet whispers
of your heart.
Show me direction.
Guide my thoughts and desires along
the path that you have created.
You are the author of my life story.
In the stillness of our communion, send
forth a Word to my seeking heart.
Satisfy my hunger with manna from heaven.
Quench my thirst with life giving water.
I am broken. Surrendered.
I am fully committed to your calling.
Willing to go. Ready to serve.
Desiring your fingerprints all over my life. Prepared
to do your will no matter where it takes me
or what it demands that I do.
Empower me, Oh, Lord, to fulfill your
purpose in me and through me. Give me
a passion for the gospel that is
eclipsed by nothing else.
Fill me. Equip me. Use me.
Take this broken vessel and use me to spread the good news
of the gospel of Christ to a lost and dying world. May I bring
nothing but glory and honor to your name and may
your name be magnified in all that I do and say.
May I turn the world upside down for Jesus.

I serously have tears! Beautiful!!!
So beautifully written...your writing is the epitome of the latter part of Eph. 5:18 through vs. 19 & 20...thank you for exalting our God as you encourage others. Your writing reveals that you are led by The Holy Spirit, The Holy Breath and Wind of God!
That was so lovely. And I love that scripture. When I was cleaning out my files, I found something, a message just for my moment, in my P file. (prayer.)
Beautiful heart prayer my friend!
Amen!
Love and hugs,
Beth
