Directed Silent Retreat - my prayer

My soul thirsts for you
My body longs for you
I drink in your strength

In your generous love I am really living at last.

You hold me steady as a post. (psalm 69)

You lead me beside quiet waters
You restore my soul and let me catch my breath.

I am not afraid when you walk at my side. (psalm 23)

Everyone who runs to You. . . makes IT! (psalm 18.30)

My strength will come from settling down
in complete dependence on You. (isaiah 30.16)

God's not finished.
He's waiting around to be gracious to me.
He's gathering strength to show mercy to me
God takes the time to do everything right -- EVERYTHING

Those who wait around for Him
are the lucky ones! (isaiah 30.18)
