Lord, I thank you for a torn veil and a sacred calling. I come to you as a living sacrifice. I forsake all for your holy communion.<\/i><\/h2>\n
Communion\n<\/span>Bring me in where nothing else matters\nTrue praise and pure thanksgiving\nA song without notes\nA dance without steps\nA silence full of your voice\n\nHumble me, until all pride shatters\nTrue peace and pure abiding\nA call without shame\nA grave without power\nA silence full of your voice\n\nFill me up, prepare me for giving\nYour word and pure religion\nA love without walls\nA faith without fear\nA silence full of your voice\n\nPour me out, abundantly living\nTrue joy, the hope of glory\nA walk without sight\nA life without end\nA silence full of your voice<\/pre>\n
\u201cAfter the earthquake came a fire, but the Lord was not in the fire. And after the fire came a gentle whisper.\u201d 1 Kings 19:12<\/b><\/h2>\n

\n<\/strong><\/span>My Thoughts<\/span>
\nThere is a spiritual coming away from the noise of this world and all its distractions. In that place of intimate communion God speaks. We\u2019re transformed by His presence and prepared to do His will.<\/p>\n
