Word: LONG
Go:
——
Lord, you and I have walked this path together for a long time. The longer this walk, the more I long for you.
You knit me together while still in the womb, I’ve known of your love even as a child. {Psalm 139:13}
Yes, it has been a long time, yet I still long for you.
You are ever-present, especially in trouble, yet I still long for you. {Psalm 46:1}
You give me your Word. The more I read it, the more I long for you.
You tell me to seek you as one would gold, for your are more precious than diamonds. {Psalm 119:72}
I seek, I find. I long for more of you. {Matthew 7:7}
This thing inside of me, this longing… put there by you, made by You… is for You.
Our hearts yearn for completeness; outside of You it cannot be found.
Your Kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven. {Matthew 6:10}
Oh Lord, I ask, “How long?”
Stop.
