Psalm 63 reminds us this >is true. Deep in us is a desire to seek after God because he >is not far from us and longs to be known by us (see Acts 17). >But often when our soul-craving need for God is greatest, he is >the last place we turn for satisfaction. > > >MY PRAYER... > Holy Father, fill my heart with longing for you and my head >with understanding that it is your presence I crave. I confess >that I have often sought relief for my hunger in things that do >not satisfy. I pledge today to recognize all other sources of >satisfaction to be temporary and false. I promise to pursue you >and your will through your word and your Spirit until I rest in >your presence and grace. In the power of Jesus, my Lord, Amen. >----------- > >Heartlight Daily devotional and prayer are written >by Phil Ware of HEARTLIGHT Magazine, on the web at: >http://link.crosswalk.com/UM/T.asp?A1.21.26674.1.1286813 >----------- >HEARTLIGHT is a non-profit organization and needs >your help!
