I love you, Lord
And I lift my voice
To worship You
Oh, my soul rejoice!
Take joy my King
In what You hear
Let it be a sweet, sweet sound in Your ear

I know I’ve shared this before, Father, but it’s the first thing that popped into my head as I sat down to be with You this evening and it expresses my feelings at the moment!

Matthew 21:28-32 (<<click to read the passage)

Lord, am I obedient? You most assuredly know that I strive to be. But… do I get so busy with so many things – things that I believe You have led me to – do Your words to me get lost in the cacophony of my life? The clanging and banging in my brain of all my activity seem to drown You out. I don’t want it to…but it does…

Even this time together, I feel like it’s a last ditch effort to sit down with You…to try and listen to You. I have been up since before 4:00 am and I have not really stopped going until now. I don’t want this time to be rushed. I don’t want it to be forced.

So many times when we come together it truly is refreshing. I quite often am astounded at what You lay upon my heart. When I am quiet and listen, I hear You. And what You share with me humbles me. Thank You, Lord, for loving me…for caring about me each and every day. Thank You for welcoming me into Your presence. Thank You for holding me in Your embrace, so that I can feel Your heart beating against mine.

May I follow Your call on my life. May all believers having a burning drive to do the same. Fill us to overflowing!

I love you, Lord and I lift my voice to worship You, oh, my soul rejoice!
