For all I craved, even unbeknownst
you, Lord, have fulfilled and continue to pour over me more than I deserve
gratefully and thankfully and humbly I receive joyfully
You, indeed, hear all spoken and unspoken;
Read my heart always and keep me from selfish ways...
I want nothing more than to live in You
and You in me, always!
Welcoming Your will on earth as it is in heaven
always and everlasting...
Keep watch as I sleep tight
over not only myself but those I love
and those whom are lost...
In Christ's name I pray, always!
Amen.

Week Three of Mantra'ing!
Chew-bit for this week:
"so must the Son of Man be lifted up" --John 3:14
"By grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast." --Ephesians 2:8
Q: What does this speak to me in the right here, right now; present day Lenten journey?
What pops out? (a song, movie, experience, etc.)
What am I left with regarding the above two quotes?
I am feeling an obstructed flow.
This is due to my reliance on outside or "earthly sources" that have, for the most part, helped enhance my ability to feel lifted by the Son of Man and connected to the natural Trinitarian flow. Not to say these are unnecessary, by no means--rather secondary!
Songs: The Stone by Jars of Clay, When You Say Nothing At All by Alison Krauss and Safe and Sound by Capital Cities
When the Trinity; God, Son & Holy Ghost are neglected to be placed first and foremost, above all else, things tend to get messy.
Messy: obstructed natural flow and order, short circuited feelings like sparks from a downed power line.
The "power line" must be repaired to restore order for the very reasons an actual "power line" must be repaired in that condition.
Left with:
"Can I convince you to come any closer?!?"
Get directly closer to Christ and the Father; use the front door if you will, lol -- get caught up in the Holy Spirit blowing through me!!
Dark Horse by Katy Perry just popped in!
Blessed weekend thoughts, prayers and breezes...
