A flower doesn’t close when a scoffer walks by. It blooms boldly regardless…
A tree stands tall not because of the praise it receives from others…
You died to give me life. Please don’t let me fail to live the life You dream for me…
You placed Your will between me and my addictions…
I know you are inviting me to joy. I see glimpses of how I can accept Your invitation…
If I could hear You say my name just once, the love in Your voice would heal me completely…
Give me generous eyes that have the courage to make contact…
Use my flaws as Your divine tools to keep me humble…
I want to express you with a resonating joy that leaves people aching to know You…
You have power over everything and You still desire my words…
I want to protect myself. How do I stay open?…
You healed me. It may not look like it but You did…
Lord, times like today, I get overwhelmed by the world…
I don’t need to be numbed, I need to be nudged…
I’m tired and tempted. Please strengthen me…
I’ve been so focused on getting what I want from You…
Right here. That’s where I am. Right now. That’s where You are…
Joy doesn’t have time to despair or point fingers…
The calmness in my chest is Your hand on my heart…
When I’m in pain all I can think about is myself…
