Longing for God

I am so thankful to have God in my life. Well, I really shouldn't say it that way. Rather, I am so thankful that God has, in his grace and mercy, found me and brought me before Himself. I need Him so desperately. As in the words of Mother Teresa (well, at least from the movie, lol), I am lost without my Lord. I have this urge to give my whole life to serving Him. And perhaps I already have. Nevertheless, the voices in this world are often alluring and hard to shut out. Still, I am finding that my relationship with the Lord is on a whole new level, and it's exciting! Whenever I have drifted I find that I am quick at recognizing my 'drift' and a voice inside my heart calls me to come back to God. He calls me to come back into the love of God and not to do, but just be.

So as another school year begins, I pray that my Father will be my guide every step of the way. I pray that I might have a quiet heart to hear him and to know him even more. All the confusion and the mixed emotions I lay upon his feet and ask for him to grant me clarity. I ask for courage to face each day, and I am grateful for the hope I have in the spirit's continuous transforming work in my life and in the lives of those around me (as well as my family members! Praise God!).

Thank you God, that I don't have to walk this life alone. Thank you for you will provide. Thank you, for you keep my heart guarded close to you. Thank you =)
