My Very Best Friend… #love

the kind of woman i want to be“Oh Lord You have examined my heart and know everything about me.  You know when I sit down or stand up.  You know my every thought when far away.

You chart the path ahead of me and tell  me where to stop and rest.  Every moment You know where I am. You know what I am going to say even before I say it. 

Lord, You both proceed and follow me.

You place Your hand of blessing on my head.  Such knowledge is too wonderful for me.  Too great for me to know…”

Psalm 139 1-6

To be a woman after Your own heart, Oh Lord, is the cry of my heart…

In all my failings, and all my victories my heart sings of Your faithfulness and love…

You are my very breath…

My Savior and my King…

My very best friend, and lover of my soul….

I love You, Jesus…

In Your Name, I pray,

Amen

Live in Love,
