Abba, leave me not in the hands of men
Or at the mercy of life’s circumstances
Abandon me not to whims of my ways
Or to the frivolous fancies of my fantasies
Let me not stray away from the Source
Of my life’s delight and my soul’s sustenance
I want to dwell in Your very Presence
To be so close I can caress Your face.
Teach me to stay in the secret Place
And in the stillness of times, emit Your praise
Moment by moment, beholding Your grace
Enraptured by Your surpassing love and peace.
Despite whirling winds and raging storms
May I focus my passion on Your magnificence
Relentlessly reaching to embrace Your holiness
To be sheltered and satisfied in Your godliness
Until life and its issues bow to Your greatness
And I am transformed to Him whom I behold
Until I become like Him whom I worship:
This is the cry of my heart, so help me Abba!

I sat still before Him wondering what to write tonight. I waited for the Teacher to show me the way to go and He said, “Reach deep inside, how do you feel, what do you want?” As I reached inside, all my issues were as nothing before the King who rules the world and all in it. All I wanted was just Him; more of Him, all of Him, and my heart cries out for more.

God is the only One who fills us to satisfaction and still leaves us wanting more and more of Him. The more I seek, the more I find, the more it dawns on me that there is still so much left to be found and to be known of this Omniscient One, and the more I crave desperately for more and more of Him. Like the lungs reaching for air, so my heart yearns for the living God!
“More of You Lord Jesus,” may this be the cry of your heart today and forever. Every other thing is ephemeral, every other passion is fleeting and subject to His sovereignty. “Today and for the rest of our days, may we never cease to thirst and to cry for more and more of You o God our Father and King, amen.”

Glory!
