Abba
Help me
find my way
my priorities
my discipline
My Love.
Help me
Find my Voice
my compassion
my ministry
my charity
My boundaries
(do I get to have boundaries?)
My thoughts; My prayers
My hopes; My fears.
Holy Spirit, groan for them.
I feel: adrift
unanchored
uncharted
uncertain
Scrambled, tumbled, lost, confused, concerned,distracted, distant, disengaged, distrustful.
But You say
I AM
the Way
the Truth
the Straight Path
the Firm Anchor
the Solid Rock
Peace, that passes understanding
the Beginning and the End
the Center
Hope
New Mercy and Joy in the Morning
Healing
Life
the Light of Men
My Rock
My Salvation
You say, Come,
You burdened, weary, heart-heavy, soul-seared, back-broken, downcast.
Come.
And I will give you
still waters
quiet pastures
Hind's feet
Eagle's wings.
A heart of flesh,
A new name.
Help.
Rest.
God's Promise.

Beautiful and honest. Thank you for sharing. I pray that the Lord will strengthen you for the ministry to which He has called you. I pray that this Christmas season will be a time of refreshment and renewal. May God pour out His grace upon you and give you peace.
I found you through the link up over at The Gypsy Mama, where we share the post we wish more people would have read this year. This one really spoke to my heart. I am not a pastor's wife, but am very actively involved in ministry, and consider my blogging a ministry. I really needed these words today. Thank you!
Yes.
