I come to you today, Lord. On bended knee.
Knowing…I have nothing to give…..
No words that can describe your glory.
How can one mouth profess all your praise?
How can half and hour describe your magnificence?
Yet, today…..we speak. At Womens. About China.
And I struggle because I know….I am empty of any of my own strength…..
It’s all you, Lord!
The miracles. The healings. The power. The strength.
The love for the children…..
All a gift of grace.
And can I share that truth……
Somehow?
As I stand before staring faces?
Can they see your full beauty in two women clinging to faith…..empty of all praise?
Yes, that is my prayer….
Lord, be glorified.
Display all your splendor. Present yourself…..
Holy.
And Good.
And in all the abundance that you are…..
So others can know the gracious God you are.
And despite their circumstances….
Their mindset….
Their world that may be shrinking….
You will reign high, with all powerful. Supreme.
And at the end…..
we will walk off that stage….
Nothing.
Simply nothing.
Vessels empty…..
For your name!
Amen.
