interests

Blessed God,

Thank You so very much. You provide me with singing [♪Counting My Blessings♪]. Smiles. Interests. Love. Joy. Patience. Understanding. Learning. Wanting…

♪God, I’m still counting my blessings For all that You’ve done in my life The more that I look in the details The more of Your goodness I find♪

(4:02 a.m.)

How awesome are you Dear God?

One moment I’m searching and reading about interests in and with You. And the very next? ♪Father, let Your will be done On earth as in Heaven Right here in my heart♪ BLARES in my mind.

Seemingly out of nowhere. Immediately found. The Lord’s Prayer (It’s Yours) by Matt Maher. Thank You, thank You God.

Psalm 103:13

Philippians 2:4

(4:45 a.m.)

Again. Louder. With more intensity.

Wanting to go back to sleep. Snuggled in. Letting my brain rest. Then BAM! ♪Father, let Your kingdom come Father, let Your will be done On earth as in Heaven Right here in my heart♪

Coffee drink in hand. Excited [agog!] to learn what You have for me this morning. Go!

(5:07 a.m.)

♪Bless the Lord oh my soul, oh oh my soul I worship His holy name Seems Sing like never before, oh my soul… 10,000 Reasons for my heart to find♪

And where did that come from? The Message. Psalm 103. Planning to read verse 13. Then starting at the beginning. “O my soul, bless GOD. From my head to toe, I’ll bless His holy name!”

Yes please Father. Keep me blessing Your holy name! ♪Sing like never before, oh my soul I’ll worship Your holy name♪ Yes!

Verse 13 in EasyEnglish Bible. “As a father is kind to His children, the LORD is kind to us. He is kind to people who worship Him.” Amen. Yes please! Let me worship You as You desire and know is best.

Teach me Dear Father to heed Your apostle Paul’s encouraging words to the Philippian believers. Chapter 2. Verses 3 and 4, “Do nothing out of selfish ambition or empty conceit, but in humility consider one another better than yourselves. Let each of you look carefully not only to your own interests, but also to the interests of others” (Evangelical Heritage Version).

Oh yes please! ♪Father, let Your kingdom come Father, let Your will be done On earth as in Heaven Right here in my heart♪

Direct and empower me toward the interests You would have me follow. I love, need, trust and want You Lord. Do all You must. In. With. By. Through. And for me that I will live, love and laugh as You would have me. Thank You. Praise You. Amen.
