Prayer - October 11th, 2009

I give thanks to you, sovereign and preeminent Ancient of Days, for you have bathed my soul in the joyous light of your countenance and set my heart ablaze with such a passionate love for your holiness which so easily eclipses any pleasure of my senses. I pray thee, oh Heavenly Father, that you continue to bind me to the word of your power and never allow me to escape your love. Help me to flee the call of worldly affections so apt to beset at once when I fail to adore you completely. Help me to know you as true love revealed in the perfection of my freedom in Jesus Christ and I pray that thanksgiving and praise will continually serve to mirror your grace oh so obviously in my life. I love you and all that you do, oh wondrous and mercifully creative God, my Lord and lover of my soul. Help me to always blush at the thought of your love for me. Thank you for embracing me eternally and never letting me go. To the three who agree in heaven as one: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Help me to continue bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ, my Lord. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
