Day 136: 05/08/2013

Holy God,

And it's been that kind of day.  The day that just seems slightly off tilt.  The day I head out to buy coffee and find myself at my friends house, barging in unannounced asking for coffee.

I'm avoiding you.
Avoiding dealing with you.

Barge into my life, barge into my mind, plunge yourself into my life, Christ, ask for coffee.
 Make me stop and sit with you for a while.
Make me linger a little longer, listen a little truer.
 I want to be faithful to you and to you only.

And my heart it will only rest when it finds its resting place in you.
So chase me down, search after me and all my scattered parts.
Pursue me with your reckless love until I am 130% assured of your goodness and mercy.
Shelter me with your truth. Anoint me with your spirit.
All day long I put my hope I you, Yes my only hope is in you.
Amen.
