Romans 8:26
Too Tired to Pray
When you’re too tired to pray
. . . the Holy Spirit helps us in our weakness. For example, we don’t know what God wants us to pray for. But the Holy Spirit prays for us with groanings that cannot be expressed in words.
27And the Father who knows all hearts knows what the Spirit is saying, for the Spirit pleads for us believers in harmony with God’s own will.
28And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them.
29For God knew his people in advance, and he chose them to become like his Son, so that his Son would be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters.
30And having chosen them, he called them to come to him. And having called them, he gave them right standing with himself. And having given them right standing, he gave them his glory.
Amen
Walk With me O Lord
Proselytise of Jah
Hear me O Jehovah, as I stand on dust and look to water
No scribe, no book, no stone, no pen did create you
So, speak to me, Heavenly Lord, as you did to those of old
My ear is inclined, and I await your communion
Not by paper, but by lips
To you, do I open my mind and spirit
Reveal your truth, and teach me your will
If I am a Temple, then in me do dwell
A person you are, not an idea
A being you be, not a story
An individual, not a book
A God of love, not a religion
