He is here

This morning Jeya and I drove to church about 5:30AM. Some folks said that they wanted to come to church early in the morning to prayer. I was very tired but I thought I would encourage them by showing up. Unfortunately no one turned up. It was just me and my wife.

But God showed up. His tangible presence was very real. I lifted all my church members, everyone by name into His presence with their specific needs. I know He heard us this morning.

My experience prompted me to pen the following lines. I hope it blesses someone.

It was dark, the dawn breaking

I was tired, my body aching

But still I came

Thinking some weary soul needs ME

But strangely, the room was empty

It was just I

I turned to the Lord, and asked why

I grumbled in frustration, why shouldn't I,

I could have slept a little longer, deemed a little more

But then a small little voice.

I am here, It is I

Can I have this time, just you and I

In all our business, lets not forget our quite time with the Lord. Just as much as we long for His presence, God longs for us to be with Him.
