Trust

Too many words
betray my lack of trust.

If I trust in you truly,
I don't need to speak at all.

Praying is ...

Praying is breathing

in harmony with Jesus,

who is with me.

a teardrop

I am a teardrop of Jesus.

A Reflection

Lord,

I was so lonely
that I couldn't ask anyone to be with me.

I was in so much pain
that I couldn't ask anyone for help.

I felt so hopeless
that I didn't know what to pray for.




However,

You've been with me all the time.

You've been helping me all the time.

You've been listening to my wordless prayers,
waiting for me to realize it.

Praying

Lord,

Praying is not asking a favor of You.
Praying is letting You change my heart so that I will be more like you, isn't it?

Expectations

Abba,

I don't have to live up to anyone's expectaions.

I don't have to live up to my own expectations of myself, either.

The most important thing that You expect me to do is to let myself be embraced by You all the time, and this is true worship, isn't it?

Judges 6:12

Judges 6:12


The Lord was with Gideon
not because he was a mighty warrior.

Gideon was regarded as a mighty warrior
because the Lord was with him.

Revelation 21:4

Father,


Revelation 21:4 never fails to bring tears to my eyes.

I'm looking forward to the day when You will wipe every tear from my eyes in person.
Let me taste Your love to the full every day, waiting for the time expectantly.

An Opening Prayer

Dear Lord,

Transform me into Your likeness
by the power of Your Spirit.

In Jesus' name, Amen.
