Overnight rains have soaked the thirsty ground, and now a
warm sun peeks out from the clouds still being blown across a blue sky beyond.
The potatoes planted deep and the carrot and parsnip seeds planted shallow will
be swelling in the rain and sprouting towards the sun.
Swell my heart today, Lord, with praise. As the seeds in the
earth soaked in the rain water overnight, and now feel the warm fingers of
sunlight tickling and teasing them into growth, may my heart swell in the
refreshing truth of the gospel, and may it sprout in the warm glory of the Son.
May it grow into a living praise machine. May I go through this day with all
its challenges, imagined and unforeseen, with a song in my heart, a song on my
lips, a song of praise and thanksgiving. Be lifted up, Lord, be exalted. Be glorified,
my Jesus, be worshipped all over the world.
As Covid 19 highlights the failings of society, may your
praises highlight the glories of this world you have given us. Maybe the earth
would be better off without humanity, but partnering with you, Lord, we can
steward creation as you want us to. Help us today, Lord. And be glorified in
everything.
Blessed be your beautiful name, Jesus. Amen.
