VERSE:
My soul yearns for you in the night; in the morning my spirit
longs for you.
-- Isaiah 26:9
http://www.SearchGodsWord.org/desk/?query=Isaiah+26:9
THOUGHT:
When young people in love are apart, they long to be with each
other again. When a parent is separated from his or her child, the
parent misses the child intensely. When a spouse can no longer be
with a long time marriage partner because of disease, death, or
divorce, that person's soul can ache to be reunited to the one they
have loved. Do you recognize your spirit aching to be with God? Do
you end each day and begin the next longing to be in the presence
of God? Let's recognize our God-hunger and not only satisfy it by
spending time in his presence, but let's also communicate our
desire, affection, and need for the presence of our heavenly Father
in our lives.
PRAYER:
Holy and righteous Father, I do ache to be in your presence. I
know the piece of my soul that sometimes I feel is missing can only
be found in you. Please, dear Father, be very real and present to
me in my life today. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
