Desire

Jul 1, 2018 | Blogs, Poetry Spotlight

Blessed are the hungry for they shall be filled. Our Lord declared it, and His words are true!

How lovely you are, my King of Glory. I worship you in the beauty of holiness. Above all things, you are my heart’s desire.

Desire
You are a fountain that will never cease
Mover of Mountains and the Prince of Peace
Oh! I hunger for your word.

A faithful caller standing at the door
You came to fill me so I thirst no more
Oh! I hunger for your word.

Seed of the woman, perfect sacrifice
Our Father’s blessing of eternal life
Oh! I hunger for your word.

“For he satisfies the thirsty and fills the hungry with good things.”
Psalm 107:9

Even the lyrics of praise and worship proclaim His word. A healthy spiritual appetite hungers and thirsts for the Living Water: Bread from heaven. So take Him in by the Spirit.

Beloved Unbeliever

Someone once said that if God could be psychoanalyzed, it would be concluded that His love for us is obsessive-compulsive. In Psalm 8:4 David ponders, “What is man that you are mindful of him…?” Dear Father, you love us because you are love! You can be one with us...
