Prayer Request


Dear God,
I love You, God. My human heart is not capable of loving with the overwhelming depths of Your love, God. But to the extent that I understand and I am able, I love You, Lord. Help me love You more, God. I pray You might help me grow closer to You and know You better. My heart longs for You. You are so good, so loving, so kind to me, so incredible, so amazing. In Scripture, the sea is often used to describe utter chaos, fear, rage, and instability. I am in awe of You, Father, as I read in Revelation of You sitting on Your throne before a sea of glass- as clear as crystal. You are perfect peace.

"Also in front of the throne there was what looked like a sea of glass, clear as crystal." - Revelation 4:6

I love You, God. You are so big, so important, so glorious, so holy... and yet, you sit with me, Jesus. Who am I that You would sit with me? That You would give me any of Your attention? That you listen and love me... as I quiet my heart to pray, I imagine that You sit with me by the water, or under the shade of trees, in the warm and in the cold, where there is grass or sand or rocks, or in the stillness of Your sanctuary, in the sun or the rain... "Will you sit with me, Jesus? I love You. Can we talk?"

48 “How do you know me?” Nathanael asked. Jesus answered, “I saw you while you were still under the fig tree before Philip called you.”
49 Then Nathanael declared, “Rabbi, you are the Son of God; you are the king of Israel.”
50 Jesus said, “You believe because I told you I saw you under the fig tree. You will see greater things than that.” He then added, “Very truly I tell you, you will see ‘heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending on’ the Son of Man.” (John 1)

How incredible it is that You listening and loving us, You knowing us personally and intimately... is merely the BEGINNING. That we "will see greater things than that". I love You, Lord. I want to know you better. I want to love You more. I crave You, God.

In Jesus' name,
Amen
