January 27 Prayer

January 27 Prayer

Washed away, remember no longer
There is no need to offer a sacrifice
for our sins
no weight to carry
For there is One that carried it all
One sacrifice, one offering for all
so we my enter into a blessed way
and learn to walk in this way

God’s law is put in our hearts and written on our minds
placed there by his Holy Spirit
by his Son’s sacrifice

So why do we try so hard to prove ourselves,
to be recognized by others and desire noteworthy approval?

To walk the blessed way of a pure heart
we need to rest in the law of God
the law of love
being loved
being known by Him.

Why this need to be affirmed and known for
we are already known?

So let us live out of this place of knowing
with a fresh start
with a new covenant
where past sins are no longer remembered
the opinion of others need no longer to be considered

Only live in love
that is his law written in you
that is his commandment
in your heart and in your mind

Live for One only and you will be blessed

Pause a moment and take a look inside your heart
motives.
What drives you?
Why do you do what you do?

Now see grace like rain washing every part of your heart

See the etching of God there,
branded with His name,
Love

Soak here a while until your very breath becomes your prayer.

‘Lord Jesus,
Reshape our heart motives into your law of love
that everything we do we do from this place of being known.

And when we fall short and revert back to our unhealthy thinking
and ways of doing,
remind us that our very breath is a prayer,
our hearts are made new,
and we are able to begin again.

Let us live for Love this day
and show it in a secret way for your eyes only.

Praise and glory be
to the One who has set us free to live in love.

Amen
