Lent 2009: Day 43 (Holy Week Wednesday)

Lenten Journey through the Spiritual Alphabet
Psalm 119, Sustainable Love

Taw (Part 1)

Let my cry come before you, LORD;
in keeping with your word give me discernment.
Let my prayer come before you;
rescue me according to your promise.
May my lips pour forth your praise,
because you teach me your laws.
May my tongue sing of your promise,
for all your commands are just.

*****
For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.

John 3:16
***

Heavenly Father:
Love is your just and eternal command, yet
even today, It takes courage (heart) to say the words…

“I am a human with a bit of divinity who wants to walk the way of Jesus”
“I am weak and cannot do it alone”
“I am wanting what Jesus gives”
“I am a Christian”
“I am a follower of Christ”
It takes heart.

Yes, some people get it wrong, and
It is not easy to forgive them, and
it is not easy to forgive ourselves.
It takes heart.

Don’t run away!
Without fear, don’t be afraid of the Word inside of you!

Love is a like bell that is struck in your heart and resonates
as it moves to your finger tips and toes…
other parts of you too… I know you have felt it there!
and also…your throat and
when it rolls off your tongue
and vibrates through your lips,
it rings throughout the universe,
…no matter the size of the sound…
even if it is a whisper...,
especially if it is a prayer that is first whispered inside your heart,
A secret… whispered to your heart from your soul.
Jesus is Love!

Amen
K
