The summery sands of happiness
I love Jesus Christ. He is the great Giver of life and the person who listens and answers our prayers. Hallowed be Thy name, compassionate Jesus Christ. Thou art Rainbow faithful, righteous Redeemer, Lord of Lords and King of Kings.
Thou art Our beloved, treasured Teacher and shepherd of Our soul. More beautiful than beautiful, take our faltering faith and be Our richest blessing; so that You might furnish us with Your most fervent faith. Touch us O gracious, just, holy God of the holy Bible. We acknowledge before You that our five senses strive for self-justification. Cleanse us pure Saviour. We acknowledge too, precious imparter of the gift of purity, that our reasoning relaxes by racing the rumbling, robust rampaging, rain clouds of self-righteousness that our cold calculating hearts stir up.
We plead for Your stillness; for our conscience continues to be hammered and hounded by speeding and stampeding skateboarders from Satan�s kingdom. We plead for Your fragrant faith; for our brows have been sprayed by an unseemly stench of burst burdens that we have unnecessarily carried. Please hurry for this is no pleasant nasal companion. Help us righteous Judge of heaven and earth, so that our unclean hearts can turn from self- absorption and stop prattling on like out-of-tune roosters to thee O God of grace. Touch our thinking, emotions and decision-making faculties holy Creator; so that forevermore our hungering and thirsting shall ever-increasingly be to praise You, to thank You and to adore You.
O yes, love us so lovingly, so that we can courageously and confidently bear witness that You are our inspiration. Love us with Your freshest most fervent love; so that we can proceed to fight faithfully to teach and feed our neighbours Your thoughts, feelings and judgements that are expressed uniquely in Your Holy Scriptures. As my heart reaches out to you fellow lion-hearted learners, from one end of the earth to another, my prayer is that your desire level for an intimate relationship with Your eternal Shepherd Jesus Christ will deepen even more. Be brave and conscientious and pursue holiness and you will discover that God is a God of exquisite nearness and justice.
All wintry wanderings are just for a season and a blissful summer awaits you as, motivated by pure desire, you keep coming before your Maker and Sustainer with rejoicing, thankful hearts. May summer always be just a song of thanksgiving away for you, precious, delving-for-truth friends. And just as in past times many others have found His all-glorious love, so also new seekers like you can breathe in the fresh air of heaven who is Jesus Christ.
Call upon Him by surrendering your time and talent to His safekeeping and you will discover that He is Your eternal summer and longs also to be forevermore Your truest Friend. Dear humble searcher for His beauty, keep working diligently to honour God�s Name by regularly studying the holy Bible, and you�ll find upon hungering and thirsting after righteousness that God will draw you to Jesus Christ, Your eternal Summer, and that His gracious salvation love will wash over you like the gentle in-flowing tide, as if you were relaxing hand-in-hand with Your Beloved Creator God sharing footprints in the sands by the sea.
