Oh Lord let me please be a woman who desires first for you.
What… or who on this earth is as wonderful? As beautiful…? As faithful?
“I have set the Lord always before me…” Psalm 16:8
I put my trust and hope only in you. No one on earth can love me like you do. Why do I seek fulfillment in all the wrong places? Why to I look for it everywhere and find it nowhere? I will look only to you to satisfy the desires of my heart. My passion will be for my God. I love you far less than I should.. You must equip me to love you more. Give me a pure heart. Give me a pure mind… Help me to seek your will all my days! You alone are Holy. You alone are Whole. One God. Perfect in unity, yet distinct in personalities- three. Triune. You amaze me utterly. I cannot conceive of your glory in my small mind, o God. My mind cannot define you, my eyes cannot see you, my heart cannot bear the full force of your awesome love… You are too wonderful for me. I should die under the weight of knowing that Christ spilled his innocent blood … ransoming me from sure death. But instead you fill me. You inhabit me and in so doing strengthen my spirit. There is no one like you!
“Whom have I in heaven but thee? And there is no one upon earth that I desire beside thee.” Psalm 73:25
