Soundtrack/Backpack

All of the blog posts have a "soundtrack" listed. I firmly believe we feel things more deeply when we associate a thought or experience to a song. I pray the Spirit will use my words and these songs to draw you in deeper into the love and grace of the Triune God!

Some posts have a "backpack" item. Simply, these are books that I would suggest for further reading on a given topic.

Prayer of Adoration

We had an assignment to write a prayer of adoration focusing upon God’s omnipresence, omnipotence,and omniscience. I feel like it shouldn't be wasted on an assignment. Won't you praise God with me:

Oh great and majestic God! We worship You. You are ever present in time and space. Your eternal love dwells in earth, and heaven alike. Jesus, Emanuel, You are near to all cultures and people groups. Holy Spirit, Your saturation is immeasurable. Beautiful Creator, Your thumb print is visible in all of Your design. You are eternally alive. We praise You for Your ability to meet us where we are, simultaneously, across the universe. We do not understand Your vastness, but we praise You in it. Father, we are grateful that You are waiting when we call upon Your name! You meet with us at the Holy Table, and draw near to us in the sacred moments. Like a wave crashing over us, we rejoice in Your majesty!

Lord, You know all that is, was and is to come. You see all; You discern the secrets within the hearts of men, women, and children. You attend to the tremendous eternal events, and You cherish the fleeting mundane moments. You know and foreknow wholly, and still mysteriously in Your knowledge You sustain our freedom. You are never afraid of or shocked by our choices. You see the tapestry of time in perfect chorus praising Your Holy Name, they resound together lifting You up. Creation is exposed naked and free, rejoicing in its Creator. We cannot hide and must recognize Your beautiful gaze.

Matchless Defender and Protector, You have the power to accomplish all that You desire and originate. Nothing is too difficult for You. You never contradict Your divine goodness, love and justice. Savior, we exalt the saving and absolute power of the Cross. You have and continue to accomplish more than we are capable of understanding. Oh, Lord, our God, all of the earth submits to Your power. Spirit, You never deny Your awesome authority. You are more than worthy. You alone are God. We submit our offering of praise.

Soundtrack: Famous One, Chris Tomlin.
