Longing for Him...

How I long for your presence

that place where we become one

How I long for your wisdom
every time I lack a response

How I long for your compassion
every time I act with indifference

How I long for your guidance
every time I am too busy to listen...

Father God, Jesus my Savior, Holy and con-substantial Spirit of Truth
My dear Creator how I long for you.

When I have failed in my endeavor of living a Holy life
How I long for your forgiveness and restoring power

When I failed to do my best
How I long for a second chance

When my humanity betrays me
How I long to walk in the spirit

When too many words invade my mind
How I long for your still small voice

When I do not know my way out
How I long to follow your way

When everything around me is spinning out of control
How I long for your steadfastness

When I think I can not go on
How I long to know that I can do all things through you because you strengthen me

When I do not know what to do
How I long to know that you order my steps

When I am uncertain about my future
How I long for your prophetic insight

When I feel inadequate
How I long for your empowerment

When I sigh and no one hears me
How I enjoy knowing you are with me

When no one calls or writes an email
How I value that you are near

When I am tempted to give up and stop believing
How I thank you for your mercy

When I am trembling out of fear
How amazing is to know your ever faithful

When the world lies to my face
How valuable is your total truth

When people try to use me and abuse me
How awesome is to feel you near me

When I try to get my way
How comforting it is to know that you won't let me

When I have tried to bury my self on my own failures
How good it is to know that you won't let me

When I wonder the things I wonder
How precious to know that you truly love me

When I call and they do not respond
How magnificent it is to know that you are listening

When life tries to suffocate me
How healthy it is to feel the Ruach of your Spirit

When I think about the end
How beautiful to know that then is when we will start to enjoy eternity...
