Longing for you Lord

Lord I long to know You more everyday.
Shape me, form me to be like You in every way.

I long to give You glory in all that I do,
Give me words, give me songs, I pray in my heart they only see You.

I long to fall deeper in love with you as long as I breath.
use me, test me, You are all that I need.

I long for those in the dark to be saved by your blood.
that they would know and they would live in your never ending love.

But most of all I long to live my life according to You.
My maker, my savior, my comfort, Whatever YOUR will I will do.  


This is a prayer in some sorts and a declaration in others. It's a longing to do whatever my God asks of me without grumbling or complaining or being afraid. (Which, let's face it are all very human reactions) It's a declaration that whatever He has told me to do, or where He has told me to go i will, and that I will go through anything just to be closer to God and to be like Him. 

The last line I just actually changed to list all things that we call our God and things he is to us. He has given us a gift of eternal life and now EVERYTHING we do should be giving glory back to Him because we CANNOT do anything without Him.

I know I kind of got off on a tangent a little bit but I hope You all are blessed none the less.

until next time,
Heather
