A life that is full of you …
Psalm 126
A song for pilgrims ascending to Jerusalem.
1 When the Lord brought back his exiles to Jerusalem,
it was like a dream!
2 We were filled with laughter,
and we sang for joy.
And the other nations said,
“What amazing things the Lord has done for them.”
3 Yes, the Lord has done amazing things for us!
What joy!4 Restore our fortunes, Lord,
as streams renew the desert.
5 Those who plant in tears
will harvest with shouts of joy.
6 They weep as they go to plant their seed,
but they sing as they return with the harvest.
Lord, please teach me to have an inclusive faith. A life that is so full of You that my neighbours and friends say…
“What amazing things the Lord has done for him.”
Help me live a life that displays Your love but that’s not “showy”. May all those precious lives that are looking at me somehow only see You.
And use it all Lord. Help me not to hide my tears and brokenness, my humanness. Your laser light of hope and joy and gladness and restoration will be seen so much clearer. May my tears bring others a harvest of joy. Let all the world see how really great You are!
Amen
