The only words I can think of are: Wow! and Hallelujah!
Going to bed with a smile on my face and praise on my lips - can this get any beget that this (without the return of Jesus)?
Today started with Isaiah 55 - so many nuggets in it: 'seek God while you can, and 'God's word never returning empty' with the cherry that is 'going out in joy and being led back in peace'. And I was, and I did and I am and ... Wow! The psalms underpinned all that and the nod to Lot and judgement and stuff just made the task before me more important still.
Lord for the places my feet were found I thank you.
For the times when I was aware of your presence in my life today I bless you.
For the presence of your Holy Spirit acting in those I saw I worship you.
Today and its labours have come to an end - give me sleep and make me to rise tomorrow with added zeal, increased courage and a gentleness of spirit.
Help me to bring peace where there is none; understanding where there is ignorance and confusion: love and acceptance where there is rejection and pain. Help me to be your man and to take Jesus, the Christ, into all that I do and am.
And a postscript: be for those who have needs today the God who answers by fire.
Bless you God - Marantha.
