Bless the LORD, O my soul! O LORD my God, you are very great: You are clothed with honor and majesty. (Psalm 104:1 NKJV)
Oh Lord, My God...
Today we continue sharing lyrics to one of our songs, "Being in Your Presence". We pray God speaks to you in this time of reflection.
The lyrics for today's devotion are a culmination of what has been happening in the song.
Being in Your presence is my heart's desire.
Being in Your presence all I need.
Being in Your presence is what I'm yearning for.
You alone O Lord can fill my heart's desire.
You alone are Lord, Consuming Holy Fire.
You alone O Lord, You call me to You higher.
When we get to "Oh Lord, My God," it is like an "aha" moment. We come to the realization of how wonderful our Lord is, and we are amazed at His love for us.
Our heart's cry is to get to that place of pure contentment with the Lord of our lives. As we do this day by day, He reveals more of Himself to us. The wonderful thing to know is that as we come to know Him more, there is a never-ending supply of knowing Him.
Prayer:
Heavenly Father, only you alone can satisfy my heart's desire. You love me more than I can imagine. You are all I need and what I'm yearning for. Please reveal more of yourself and help me to shine Your light in everything that I do. Amen.
"God does not give us everything we want, but He does fulfill His promises, leading us along the best and straightest paths to Himself." - Dietrich Bonhoeffer
