February 4 Prayer

“Let all that I am wait quietly before God,
For my hope is in him.
Pour out your heart to him…

Be still before the Lord
and wait patiently for him to act.”
Ps.62:5,Ps.37:7

When you approach God what kind of being are you coming to?
On Mt.Sinai Moses met God as a blazing fire, and the sound of his voice
was too loud to bear that the people would beg it to stop.

And now we read In Hebrews there is the better word.
The sound of Jesus, his voice calling us to come.
For all to come.
No exclusion,
But an invitation to come truly as you are.

Come and be purified in a fire that burns away
our glittering images that we uphold,
our addictions and attachments
that we hold too dear
out of order
our desires

We come to the one who has
sprinkled us clean
Giving us a clean conscience

To receive what is life giving
to our souls
Forgiveness, peace
and reconciliation

Come now to the life giving
beauty of God
Do not fear him
Bring to him your complete self
Jesus makes a way
Forgive yourself
Make peace there with your enemies
Fears, false images, all that robs
you from a full life of joy.

Follow the better way
The blessed way
The way of wholeness
and peace
The with-God life
He is for you
Not against you
Listen to his voice
Come to love
Come to life~

‘Lord Jesus we come
Just as we are
Sprinkle us now and
fill us overflowing
With your love and presence
Make us whole, complete beings,
true to ourselves and true to you

May we go out with joy
and spread your love
Always returning
Coming back to you.’

Amen
Hebrews 12:18-24
