My Good Friday's message from God was this simple, yet this powerful-- First love for God. Everything that I lack, everything i hope to be, everything that I am not, is summed up in this poem from Fast and Pray:
LET GOD BE THE MEASURE
I...
Let the grace of the Lord be the measure of my sufficiency;
Let the peace of the Lord be the measure of my quietness;
Let the power of the Lord be the measure of my strength;
Let the goodness of the Lord be the measure of my contentment;
Let the love of the Lord be the measure of my service;
Let the faithfulness of the Lord be the measure of my trust;
Let the beauty of the Lord be the measure of my worship;
Let the fullness of the Lord be the measure of my joy;
Let the sovereignty of the Lord be the measure of my confidence;
Let the promises of the Lord be the measure of my expectations;
Let the coming of the Lord be the measure of my hope.
Amen
This is who I hope to be-- God as my portion. I'm once again reminded that I am nothing without Him.
