Here I Am

Here I am     needing Your love     hoping for joy     waiting in anticipation     when You make Your presence known. Here I am     thinking of Your mercy     remembering how every instance     showered me like a morning rain     with Your infinite grace Here I am     smiling at You     You give me joy     I cannot contain it     so I will praise You! Here I am     silent before You     on my knees     I am in awe     that You give audience to me Here I am     wanting to be more like You     I hear You say,     "The harvest is ripe..."     use me Lord

Almighty God and Father,

The aren't enough words to express my gratitude and appreciation for Your love and grace.  How often You extend Yourself and because of You, I am better than I could have ever imagined.  Thank You for Your goodness.  Your love is beyond my understanding!  Hear my prayer today, not because I demand it, but because You tell me to, "Ask..., and to "come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need."  Search me Lord.  You know my heart, my secret thoughts, my deepest concerns.  You give peace when I am troubled, water when I thirst, light when I am blinded, and love when it was undeserved.  I will praise You Lord!  Yes, I will praise You.  I won't wait for the rocks to cry out on my behalf.  Your holiness is revealed and one day I will see Your face.  Thank You for who You are and what You do on my behalf.  With unending joy, I say, "Amen!
