We Need You, Jesus, to Speak the Humbling and Healing Words only You Offer

Sunday Psalm 4.28.24

Father God
Lord Jesus
Holy Spirit

We present ourselves before You again this Sunday.
We come together in your righteousness.
We agree with You that we 
Possess no standing with You 
Except what You have provided for us.

We are a needy and broken people,
Even more than we realize.
Some of us carry obvious signs,
But we are all broken.

We’re distrustful, we’re resentful,
We’re unloving, we’re indifferent.
We need You to expose ourselves
To ourselves.
We need your correction and conviction.

We want to live in peace and hope,
But we don’t always know what choices
Will actually yield that kind of life.

Come, Holy Spirit, bring your power today.
Show us our hearts.
Show us your heart.

We need You.
We need your direction.
There is no one else under heaven
Who will speak the humbling 
And healing words we need.

We will never give up exposing our hearts to You.
There’s always more healing and wholeness.
And the best is yet to be, when peace and
Hope will be our daily bread. 
Amen.
