Prayer Poem: Humbled Heart

Times of Refreshing
How we need those times, O Lord
Bowing before You

No silver or gold
But what I have I shall bring
Heart humbled and true

Ever Ready

Lord God, may I do what is good and right and faithful before You
May every work I undertake in Your service be done with all my heart
Fill me with Your Spirit
May I store up Your treasures in my heart
Speak Your Word that it may go forth and accomplish that which You proscribe
Provide all I need
May Your work prosper in my hands
Provide for Your beloved, even during sleep
So I may rise strengthened and refreshed
Ever ready to do Your Will

Prayer Poem: Sowing for Future Harvest

Holy Spirit, Come
May we reap with shouts of joy
Having sown with tears

Weeping and sighing
Bearing the seed of sowing
Home with shouts of joy

The times are not known
Our soul is troubled and faint
Pour out Your Spirit

Sea of Your Good Timing

Thank You for choosing me to minister before You
Surround me from this time on and forever more

What will You do for me today?

May I stand still and wait on You and Your timing
I entrust myself to Your goodness
O Lord, grant me Your peace
I allow my frustration and impatience to dissolve in the sea of Your good timing
May I feed the lambs You bring to Your House today

Note: Preached and officiated first communion at FPC today
