A single grateful thought raised to heaven is the most perfect prayer. Gotthold Ephraim Lessing
Scripture
Be cheerful no matter what; pray all the time; thank God no matter what happens. This is the way God wants you who belong to Christ Jesus to live. 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 (MSG)
Song
Kari Jobe - The Garden
[Verse 1]
I had all
But given up
Desperate for
A sign from love
Something good
Something kind
Bringing peace to every corner of my mind
[Chorus 1]
Then I saw the garden
Hope had come to me
To sweep away the ashes
And wake me from my sleep
[Verse 2]
I realized
You never left
And for this moment
You planned ahead
That I would see
Your faithfulness in all of the green
[Chorus 2]
I can see the ivy
Growing through the wall
'Cause You will stop at nothing
To heal my broken soul
I can see the ivy
Reaching through the wall
'Cause You will stop at nothing
To heal my broken soul
Oh, You're healing broken souls
Yea, You're healing broken souls
[Bridge]
Faith is rising up like ivy
Reaching for the light
Hope is stirring deep inside me
Making all things right
Love is lifting me from sorrow
Catching every tear
Dispelling every lie and torment
Crushing all my fears
You crush all my fears
You crush all my fears
With Your perfect love
Oh, with Your perfect love
[Chorus 3]
Now I see redemption
Growing in the trees
The death and resurrection
In every single seed...
Sentence Prayer
Holy Father;
Faith is rising up like ivy
Reaching for the light
Hope is stirring deep inside me
Making all things right
Jesus;
I have faith in You; heal my unbelief
I know you are the light of the world; help my to reach out with Your light!
I have hope for your sacrifice is redeeming all who stir
Holy Spiirit
Confront my faith; where it is false
Counsel me toward the light
Comfort my losses that my hope grows with your redemption. Amen
