“You are in the air I’m breathing in…”
Good morning God, what a beautiful reminder of Your omnipresence; that Your Spirit is meant to reside in me; that I’m enough just the way I am; that You care despite ______; that You are always desiring to get closer to me…
Thank You for coming after me. Thank You for sending Your peace; thank You for sending Your love in ways that I didn’t know I needed. Thank You for breathing on my situation. Your Spirit came in the room and covered it.
“I didn’t know I could have a friend like you.”
Amazing…
Battling every giant on my behalf…
Bold enough to take on all my doubts…
Creator of everything…
Comforter…
Deliverer…
Deliberate…
Friend and Father…
Great listener…
Matchless…
Reviver of the dead and hopeless…
Strong, yet merciful…
You can have everything that’s within me… Keep challenging me… Keep expanding my prayer life… Keep ushering me into the purpose You have for my life… Keep leading me into the full depths of knowing of Your sacrificial love.
In Jesus Christ’s Name,
Amen
