Desperately Thankful
Who can fathom all that our Father has done for us here in this earth. Regardless of our situation, we have breath. We all have opportunity to consider creation. There have been times when I have meditated on our Father and what He has done that has caused me to sit in awe. Today, I am not quite there, but almost. What I mean by that is it is easy for humans to rush by all that is around us. It is easy for us to think that life is about us in a way that we just move through what comes next in our head. That can result in much confusion and distraction. When I take time to meditate on his great goodness, and say scriptures out loud, it is like a compass that points me in the right direction.
Psalms 23:1 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.
4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.
Today I am desperate to be desperately thankful.
Prayer
Father, we exalt You. Thank You for all You are, and for all You do for us. Bless the name Yahuah! Let us be the light for Your kingdom in this earth. Heal this planet, Father. Send us now Your provision, pressed down, shaken together, and overflowing more than we could use in 100 lifetimes, that we might bless others in Your name, Yahuah. Forgive us our sins. Heal our hearts, minds, and memories. Deliver us from the one that kills, steals, and destroys. Restore unto Your people one hundred times one hundredfold, and hundreds of hundreds, that all might know that you have done this. Let Your work through us and our lives, be a sign once again that the God of Abraham, Issac, and Jacob is alive in this earth. Come do this quickly, O King! Rise up today! We ask all these things in the name of our Messiah Yeshuah (Jesus). Amen.
