Such a long time...
Wow! This blog was obviously supposed to be a prayer journal, and it started as we were heading to seminary. I guess seminary took away all the time I was going to take being a prayer blogger! Oh, well...perhaps as a pastor I can continue to do so. At least I'm going to try... Lord God, Father, Son, Holy Spirit, creator of all things and ruler of my heart, I thank you for the goodness you have shown to me with my family. I thank you for the congregation you have given me to serve. I thank you for the people who will come to Christ through the ministry of Church of the Covenant. I thank you for the blessings you will bestow to those who are faithful, not riches of this earth necessarily but riches of your Spirit and the riches of eternal life. Bring your Kingdom into our midst. Please move my family to Michigan safely. Please continue to give us our daily needs. Please forgive me for all the times when I have served my own desires rather than your holy will. Help me to forgive those who have attacked me in the last months for my faith in you. Keep us away from temptations, however they may come. I ask you make me a strong warrior of prayer that might fight off sin and evil wherever it is. Glorify your name in all I do and all I say. Come, Lord Jesus, for yours is the Kingdom and the Power and the Glory forever. Amen. | | Friday, March 5th, 2004 | | 9:15 am |
I am so incredibly weak, Lord, but you are strong. My sin is right before me, attacking me in ways I cannot understand. Sin is a cancer that eats from the inside, not some external force. Temptation is outside; sin is right within my body. Lord, I pray your release from my sinfulness. I ask that I be able to revel in your glory and withstand the attacks of the enemy. I do not fear death or pain; I fear falling away from you through my wickedness. In this, Lord, I am confident that you hold the answers to my pain and sin. Your son died for them. I have often asked why my sin is not taken away. But it has already been washed away; there is no question of that. It is I who is holding on to the sin. You want to take it, to wash it away, but it is my grasp that holds onto it. Lord, I am doubleminded, and I am now fully aware of it. Lord, make my mind clearly focused on you. Let me hate sin as you do, so that there is no joy in thinking about it but only a disgust at what it did to your son and to our relationship. God, I confess my sin, knowing that you are pure and holy and will forgive all those who come to you. Lead me fully in your will that I might know you and be fully known. Lord, I pray for my family. Lord, I pray for Haiti. May the enemy be completely defeated and discouraged. May all who would come to know you experience your full love in their lives so they would want to break free of their bondage. I pray for Yon Yon that his testimony would be a light in the darkness, and that Satan would not have any power to attack him for his holy betrayal to come into your family. Lord, I pray for Tom as he ministers to the family on the farm. I ask that you would help me to seek ways to serve others and in doing so serve you instead of myself. Lord, I pray for continued strength in losing weight so that I might restore the temple of my body which you gave to me as a holy tabernacle for You. Lord, I pray for the world that it might quickly come to you. Lord, may your will be done...Lord, come! Current Music: "Burns Like Fire" by Raspberry Jam | | Thursday, March 4th, 2004 | | 10:51 am |
The Passion
I sit here at work just over 12 hours after having seen THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST, and I am still utterly in shock. I don't konw that I have ever seen anything that has so utterly captured the truthfulness of what Christ went through. As Christ finally moved into position on the cross, I wondered to myself, "How could I ever scar Him again?" I was moved to tears throughout the film, but that thought just made me weep, knowing that inevitably, I will still sin and cause Him pain. May I fully rely on Him so that thsi might not be the case ever again. Dear God, You are such an amazing and wonderful creator. I am in awe of you. My words seem so futile in describing what I feel. At the same time, I am aware not only of my past sin but the temptation to sin right now, daily, that I have given into so many times. I ask for your forgiveness and grace, knowing that you would stand fully well and just to condemn me. But you are a mighty God who will overcome, and ou can overcome my weakness. Lord, I pray today for those in Haiti. May you reclaim that country and its people for yourself. Lord, I pray for those who might see THE PASSION and be moved by it. Overcome those doubts that I have and move those who hear your story for the first time to know more about you. Bring them into your holy kingdom, God. I pray for Tom and his travels. I pray for Anna and Kevin as they plan to travel to the heart of Muslim lands to serve you. May they be filled with knowledge and wisdom and boldness for you. May they be a shining light in that darkened world. Lord, I pray for Catha and Jackson. I pray that you might touch Catha's heart and maake the move to seminary a joyful experience full of grace. Lord, I pray for myself. I pray that temptation would not overcome me. I pray that would show me your will, that my time at seminary would bring me into full submission to you and prepare me for your service wherever you would send me. I ask that you would give me the courage and faith to follow wherever you lead.

Prayer Journal
Well, this is the start of my prayer journal. God, it seems kinda funny to be typing stuff in rather than writing it by hand. But for some reason, You gave me the ability to type quick and write slowly. So perhaps this is better than paper for me. It's for You to see anyway, right? Right. So here goes our adventure... |
