Come consume me, Jesus
Father God, you are so good, so beautiful, so just, so glorious. Thank you Abba for loving us, for being so merciful. Nature declares your power and might. You are all that matters. Dear Lord, I'm sorry. My pride blinds me. Forgive me, Hessed! I am selfish and undeserving. The christian martyrs I read of had so much love and forgiveness for their persecutors! And here I am, struggling to give the same response to my loving family, bosses, and co-workers who do MUCH less to me. I am so weak. So unclean. I am sorry Jesus, I'm sorry. Teach me to love. Show me what it means to have patience and be self-controlled... to be gentle and kind but at the same the time bold and courageous. Give me your eyes dear Lord, allow me to love deeper. Strengthen my faith, strengthen my feeble frame. Show me the way, give me the words. Speak through me. I want to trust you Father. For you alone are worthy of being trusted! Your love is deeper than any other. Fill me, Holy Spirit, until I am over flowing, I want others to see YOU when they look at me. Any success I have is because of you. All I have is yours Yahweh! Mold me and make me. Humble me and teach me. Heal me, Rapha, for this world rips at me and leaves me broken and tattered. I need you, I want you. Come burn in me, Jesus... like an uncontrollable fire, come consume me. It is in your name that I pray. Amen
