Pour Your Spirit on Us

Lord, reach out to the inner recesses of our heart.  Purify us from deep within.  Do a deep and a lasting work in us.  Lead us to Your heart. Shine Your light on our paths as Your Spirit leads us. Shine down Your light and pour forth Your Spirit.  Consume us with Your fire. Cleanse us with Your water. Light our path and show us the way forward.  We lean not on our understanding and rest in Your abiding presence.  We rest in Your unfailing love.  We long to touch Your throne of grace.  We long for Your courts.

Hear Our Cry

Drive us to our knees, Lord
Drive us into Your presence
To seek You
To love You
To know You
Touch our hearts
Touch our minds
Touch our souls
You meet our deepest desire
You hear the cries of our heart
You fill our deepest longing

Moment

Moment of pain

Moment of despair

Moment of anguish

God lives in these moments

He dwells in our hearts

He dwells in our thoughts

All that we do not understand

Every unanswered question

God reveals Himself to us

In these moments
Precious moments

Moments of complete release

Moments of sweet surrender

Moments of endless hope

He speaks life

He speaks wholeness

He speaks strength

He speaks hope

Happy Birthday, Monte!

Today is Monte's birthday. I thank God for him. He loves and cares for me deeply. He looks into my well being and does everything he can to ensure that I reach my fullest potential in every aspect of my life.

I pray for God to pour His spirit on Monte. I pray for God to lead and guide Him daily. That God will empower and release Him to venture into the things that He has in-stored in the coming years.

We have journeyed together as a couple since March 1999. God has brought us to the highest heights and the deepest depths. He has brought us so much joy. He shows us that He is boundless, limitless and endless. He has blessed us beyond our wildest imagination. We can only bow in humble adoration at His feet.

We pray for God to continue to work in and through us. We pray for His sustaining grace and strength for each new day. All we want is His hand of love on us. He is all we ever needed. God is the strength of our heart. He satisfies our deepest longings. We pray for God to deepen our love for each other. We cherish each moment we share together.

In the Shelter of Your Wings

Feed us, Lord

Clothe us

Comfort us

Restore us

Heal us

Strengthen us

Empower us

We hide in the shelter of Your wings

We drink from Your well

We linger in Your abiding presence

Hope of all eternity

We call on You

And rest in Your love
