Deeper into your presence

Byadmin

Mark 6:53-56

53 When they had crossed over, they landed at Gennesaret and anchored there. 54 As soon as they got out of the boat, people recognized Jesus. 55 They ran throughout that whole region and carried the sick on mats to wherever they heard he was. 56 And wherever he went—into villages, towns or countryside—they placed the sick in the marketplaces. They begged him to let them touch even the edge of his cloak, and all who touched it were healed.

Oh Lord Jesus, please fill me with your power today. Open my eyes to the “greater things” that you have planned for me to do before the world was even created.

Call me higher and deeper into your very presence that I’m soaked by your love – that I’m unable to stop the flow of blessing reaching everyone around me. May the thought of you not existing, not loving them, not calling them feel absolutely ridiculous because you are so clearly in me.

May you call me ever higher up and further in with you that even my clothes and drenched with your unexplainable healing power, your soul-cleansing mercy and your breath-taking love for the eternal sake of those around me that you love so much. Amen!
