Thought for today: Friday September 10
“If anyone is thirsty, let him come to Me and drink”. (John 7:37)
Sometimes unsatisfied longings well up within us. We may seem to have everything our hearts desire and ought to be perfectly satisfied, but still these vague dissatisfactions diminish our happiness. When you feel unsatisfied, try saying this verse a few times. Try to imagine how Yeshua looked when He said these words: the kindness, the understanding, the peace on His face. Try picturing yourself as receiving from Him a drink of cold water; symbolic of the water of life that completely satisfies thirst so that one never thirsts again.

Today's Poem
No Matter Where I Go!
No matter how far away I go,
my Lord is always there,
no matter what the world may do to me,
my Lord will always care
In the darkest corner of the earth,
God's light cannot be hid,
He stands beside me through the night,
and I know that I am His
What can this world do to me,
why do I no longer care,
it is because my Lord stands beside me,
all my sorrows and grieves to bear
Be glad my brothers and sisters,
can't you feel it in the air,
He stands before us waiting,
give Him your every care
Lord God in heaven how I thank thee,
for loving this simple little man,
it is amazing that the King in all His glory,
would come down to hold this sinners hand
I have seen so many wonders,
and the beauty in this earthly land,
but nothing can compare,
with seeing Jesus hold your hand
When Christ lifts us up to glory,
we are no longer a part of this earthly land,
Oh come with me sinner, come with me now,
come take hold of the Masters hand.
Daily Prayer
Blessed are You Lord our God, Creator of heaven and earth. In You and in Your love heaven and earth are one. You have sent Your Son Jesus, our Saviour, to lead us back into Your Kingdom. You have called us to work with You and have given us Holy Spirit. Blessed are You Father my King, my Redeemer and my Comforter. Father, we give You thanks and praise that we may share in Your Kingdom here on earth and that in Jesus Christ we see our humanity and Your Divinity as one. We ask Your blessing on all disciples of Your Word, on all who proclaim Your presence by their actions and their love. We pray for all who are seekers and that we may know You better and love You more. We pray for all who are being prepared for baptism or confirmation and all who are seeking to commit their lives to You in love. We pray for peace on earth and among all people. We ask Your blessing on all who strive for justice and peace and for all who seek to bring unity and fellowship between cultures and nations. We give thanks that Jesus was born into an earthly family and shared in our daily lives. May we know that our homes and loved ones are part of Your Kingdom. We ask Your blessing on every home where there is strive and division, deceit and distrust. We give thanks that nothing can separate us from Your love. We pray for and ask Your blessing on all who are ill, lonely or oppressed. We pray for those in hospitals, hospices or in care homes and for all who care for them. We bring before You all who despair, all who have lost hope or any vision of Your love. Loving God, You invite us to delight in Your presence and to live in Your Kingdom. Lord, keep us in life eternal. Take control of every aspect of our lives and let Your will be done in each of them. In Jesus' Name we pray, amen.
