Things that ask the best of us

Glory to my God, The Healer-King, who has been anointed by His Father to perform miracles and heal the sick! I stand by the Lord, the doctor of my soul, and let me not go a day without the medicine of his effective grace. How I love Jesus the master physician, how I must applaud and worship the God who cares so greatly for His Creation! All we need is to touch the edge of his robe to be on the verge of His Glory that would be revealed to us. May His Name be proclaimed as Great across all generations, may all who are sick and broken come and be made healing. Let all who require mending be healed beyond relief by the work of the Holiest of Kings, our Lord Jesus!

They say when you fall in love, you’ll feel butterflies inside you, but every time I think of the Lord and His Love- Oh, you will not find butterflies inside me. You will find bees, reckless and hungry. You will find passionate cavaliers dancing on the streets of my soul, desperate for the nectar of the grace of my King.

My Lord, My God, Do not take me to the Promised Land if you are not with me. I'd rather starve in the desert in the presence of my Lord than dwell amidst milk and honey without Him. Of all my prayers, I seek first to dwell in the House of the God I serve, my King, deliver me from empty blessings that did not come from your hand. I seek nothing unless I am with my God. I do not want a marriage if You will not be in the middle of it. I do not want my dream job if I prioritize work over my Savior. I do not want prosperity that lacks the God that feeds me. I would rather choose suffering, trials, and harship if it means I am able to spend time with my Lord. Let this be my first and most important prayer! Let this be a prayer of desperation, Lord! My soul thirsts for you and longs for your Word, for your flawless Beauty, that I might gaze upon the Holiness of the Name set apart from all other Names.

What kind of Creator would die for His created? What kind of Diety would die for a mortal? What love is this which surpasses all understanding that we can receive an impalpable pardon of Grace for all the wrongs we have committed? Oh salvation, my salvation! It radiates of the brilliance of My King, The Author of my faith, The Weaver of my ways.

Should I trust in God's timing? I am a mere mortal, but Greater is He who transcends dimensions, whose Celestial Love flows through the fabrics of space and time. Quantum Grace, Divine Science, my Lord is the Shepherd of my Future, so I crown Him the King of My Today. What shall mere worry do to me? My God is in control! Forever, I will delight in his flawless plans.

Two roads diverged in a Yellow Wood, and I- I took the one God led me to, and so shall I marvel at the differences? For the road laid before me is laced with pitfalls and suffering. Yet the other’s masked with complacency, with but only the sweet parts of salvation to the delight of the world. My road is called Persecution, dressed with sacrifice. Should you not be prepared to surrender all you have, you will not reach the end. But 7 words at my road’s conclusion add more worth than anything any other way has to offer: “well done, my good and faithful servant.” My God asks of me all that I am, but it was all His to begin with. Let obedience be my delight, Let me share in the sufferings of Christ that I may come to experience His Glory unfold on this world. ​ ​

It is precisely at the times when you feel most abandoned by God does it become the most cosmically important for you to proclaim that His Greatness and Glory is being revealed in your Life.

What shall steal my joy? The presence of my God, Jesus Christ, is all I need to know that all things share the purpose of my deepest desire: to witness the Glory of the Everlasting Lord be revealed to the word.

What a marvelous thing to trust in my God for He is forever faithful to the promises to His children. The House of the Living Lord stands the test of time, may I build my life on the firm foundation of His Love. Impeccable is Christ Jesus! Unwavering is the salvation given to me.

Forgive me, Poseidon, my culinary subterfuge betrays your people. Don't get me wrong, I love Finding Nemo and fish indeed are friends not food, but who can fathom the master taste of shrimp and or crab served expertly against the embrace of rice and seaweed? Bind me if you must, arbiter of the sea, but if you could only see your so favored sea creatures as the beautiful dinners they really are, would you not grow wild with cravings?

Let His truth flow into our lives! Let us come together and proclaim the glory of our Risen King!

To think you not call me slave, but a Child of God most high? A member of a royal priesthood? Your masterpiece? Co-heirs with Christ? How you lavish and lavish and lavish this boundless and flawless love onto your servant! Oh, how the excitement builds in my chest as He notices me! Oh, how I am so blessed to be in the presence of my Lord! Glory to his everlasting name! Glory glory to Jesus Christ, the Shepherd of my soul!

I am but a cup needing to be filled, He is the Ocean, the overflow, the infinite love songs poured into my heart to the delight of my soul. Let His grace replenish my thirst to be loved, a kindness unmatched, a kindness unfashionable. Praise the Risen Lord, Jesus Christ! Through him is the well of Living water of which I will not thirst and of which I will shout, “glory glory to the Lord most high!”

God of space and time, I take not one step nor live one second without the Lord’s Spirit in my heart. I treasure His presence, I rely on the power of the maker of the moon to illuminate the path set before me. Praise my life-bringer, breather of grace and mercy into the day and promises and hope for tomorrow. May his everlasting peace be my refuge amidst the storm! May He who hung the stars pour His celestial love into the rhythms of my heartbeat!
