| Written Prayer : Cargos of Love ~ 3 11 December 2001 How I dream of praising God with my WHOLE heart. To be able to claim that I mean it! I know I don't at this time. I need to learn more, so I can love Him more. Faith comes by hearing. How I wish I could zap through God's Word. Impatient me! Knowing and feasting on God's Word takes time and labour! I also know that good things are worth waiting and labouring for. How I have erred from my impatient ways in times past! The Lord is my refuge in times of trouble. His Word says so. If I believe His Word, as I say I do ~ then it is so ~ even though I may not 'feel' that way at times. My dad told me that God gave us all feelings and that they shouldn't be cast away as insignificant. Lord, show me, teach me the balance here? Facts and feelings. The balance of the two. I know that balance is important to You. The Lord has not forsaken ANY that seek Him, or ask of Him. Wow! No grudges. No "I told you so!". We can safely trust in Him. Who can we trust of humankind? Not even ourselves! I err so much. I cause 'me' to stumble. I do not trust myself. Oh, please, keep me close to You. Forever conscious of You. May I always bring glory to Your Name. May I make You happy, as You often make my heart sing.... Helen |
