In finding him, we >will find our priorities properly aligned and our hearts tuned to >know what is really valuable and what is not. Then we will see that >what we have in him is our heart's greatest desire. > >MY PRAYER... >Awesome and Gracious Father, I confess to you that so often my heart >is full of selfish things. But in moments like these, Father, I >recognize that you are what I most need and your will is my heart's >desire. Please kindle your Spirit in me so that I may see through >any selfish, deception that would rob me of having you first in my >life. Forgive me when I'm petty, selfish and shallow. May I know you >as much as is possible for a mortal to know you, not so that I may >be full, but that you may be honored. Through Jesus I pray. Amen. > >----------- > >Heartlight Daily devotional and prayer are written by Phil Ware of >HEARTLIGHT Magazine, on the web at: ><http://www.crosswalkmail.com/ywmpwpm_pkegxo.html>http://www.heartlight.org >----------- >The NIV Daily Verse is provided by ><http://www.crosswalkmail.com/dqajqjg_pkegxo.html>http://www.zondervan.com > >If you enjoyed this newsletter, forward it on to a friend. >* Copyright 2005 Salem Web Network and its Content Providers. >All rights reserved. ~~~~ Alan & Ruth Anne Wheeler <da2ofus@...> Proud owners of the following lists: Ladies Fellowship, LF Newsletter, Bread of Life, Christian Drummer and swgCares at: <www.associate.com> The LORD your God in your midst, The Mighty One, will save; He will rejoice over you with gladness, He will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing. ~ Zephaniah 3:17 (NKJV)
