Lost In You Again

I long to stand at the edge of infinity, forever lost in your love. I would abandon all else, if I could just touch your face. I long to spend my days, sheltered by your hand. Here I bow, at the foot of your throne.

Through all this rings an emptiness - one could call my longings selfish, though they are longings for your glory. They are but a part of life - a moment in time - a passing piece of a recurring puzzle. Though I long for your glory, it is your heart that has captured me completely: that none should perish.

Who could say that moving in your heart is work? Who would belittle your plans and splendour as a chore? This is my daily act of worship, my daily fulfillment of purpose, and my daily pleasing sacrifice: I will serve faithfully with every ounce of energy I possess.

I will serve with exceeding joy, because this is my gift to my creator. I will do even the menial tasks rejoicing in the honor and privilege of serving you. This is my offering, and my prayer is that you would be near me through every moment. Never leave me, but keep me safe and lend me your strength.

Teach me your ways and give me your heart. Be my tower of hope through the dark times. Hold my dreams high as the enemy attacks them, and shield me from the arrows of doubt. I believe that all things are possible. I believe that with you, I can change the world.
