old, beautiful words
O Master, show me this morning how to yield myself up to Thee completely, and then how to ask of Thee things great enough to be worthy of a King's giving. Make me equal in my requests to Thy infinite eagerness to give. Touch with Thy Pierced Hand the hidden springs that will cause every part of my being to fly wide open to Thee, my Lord and my God!

Beautiful and piercing. For some reason I'm reminded of Hind's Feet and the "streams" that sing "go lower." I pray for a heart that would make Him higher and myself lower.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, Laura. Thank you for this, today.
ReplyDeleteQuite beautiful. A prayer we should pray every day! Thank you for the reminder!
ReplyDeleteThank you so very much for these beautiful words, my friend. They are exactly what I was needing today. And, what Julia said blessed me just as much and I wholeheartedly agree with her :)
ReplyDeletePraying you ladies have a beautiful week!
Blessings,
Amanda Stanley
This is so very beautiful, Laura.
ReplyDeletethank you for this today.
Oh, love your wording, Julia ~ beautiful and piercing, indeed. I pray for that same heart and thought it was fitting that I make it my last post till I return. Bless you so much.
ReplyDeleteRegina,
ReplyDeleteYou're so welcome. May we carry that kind of heart into conference this week. See you soon!
Michelle,
ReplyDeleteYes, a prayer for every day! I so wish for that kind of heart/spirit. Praying you have a blessed week there:)
Amanda,
ReplyDeleteI thought you'd love the words and heart of this prayer. I am going to try to memorize it. Sometimes the old time wording is the most beautiful. I can remember the old King James Scripture best for some reason. Praying for you this week. See you next week ~ or, as one friend, says, "here, there, or in the air:)
Christine, Oh, love it when you stop by. Praying this week finds you filled with endless creativity and joy.
ReplyDeleteWow, that's beautiful! I don't believe I've ever heard that before. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteHave a great time, Laura!! I can't wait to see all the pictures posted up around the net! I'm doing jury duty this week...I miss the littles like crazy but I think it will be a learning and growing experience. I'll pray for you as you head out to conference :)
ReplyDeleteJulia, Oh, I remember my jury duty days with my littles:) It will be a change for you, that's for sure! So appreciate your prayers. Please pray for my boys, too. Went to open house last night and the flu has already hit the school and Paul's teacher was out, plus quite a few kids. Am heading out the door in a few minutes. Thanks so much for any travel mercy prayers! Bless you all, too, and see you here next week!
ReplyDeleteSylvia, It is beautiful, isn't it! Thanks so much for saying so:) Thinking of you and praying for you and others here this week. You all sure bless me. See you here next week!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous picture. Makes me want to walk the path, lean against the gate and gaze at the sunset. n
ReplyDeleteThanks for the quote.
Kristen, I thought that very same thing! Bless you for that. A lovely autumn sunrise. Hope there will be ones like that in heaven:)
ReplyDeleteSimply beautiful.
