“I want to want You!”

Posted on October 28, 2019October 28, 2019 by Norm

O God, I have tasted Your goodness,
and it has both satisfied me and made me thirsty for more.
I am painfully conscious of my need of further grace.
I am ashamed of my lack of desire.
O God, the Triune God,
I want to want You;
I long to be filled with longing;
I thirst to be made more thirsty still.
Show me Your glory, I pray,
so I may know You indeed.
Begin in mercy a new work of love within me…
Give me grace to rise and follow You up from this misty lowland
where I have wandered so long.
In Jesus’ name. Amen.

    Thanks for posting this Norm. I have tasted God’s goodness many times. When times are good, I sometimes forget to spend time with him. I am constantly reminded that life is a journey of growing in faith and trust. I won’t reach perfection until the day he takes me to my everlasting home. Lord, help me to remember that I need you always, in the good and tough times. Give me a desire to be filled to overflowing each and every moment that you give me.

There is no limit to what God can do through us if we are His yielded and purified people, worshiping and showing forth His glory and His faithfulness.
