I could sit here and write for an hour on each and every one of those things. Each was rich in it's own special way. But what sticks out the most in my mind, was what happened between each of them. It was a yearning to be on my knees before the Lord. Nothing satisfies like Jesus!
yearning means...
longing for,
craving,
desirous of,
hungering,
thirsting,
an aching of the heart.
That said, I'm shutting down early this evening to go back into the prayer room before bed. I will leave you with this old hymn. It may seem outdated to many, but it's such a reflection of my heart.
All That Thrills My Soul by Thoro Harris 1874-1955
(1) Who can cheer the heart like Jesus... by His presence all divine?
True and tender, pure and precious... Oh, how blest to call Him mine!
(2) Love of Christ so freely given... Grace of God beyond degree.
Mercy higher than the heavens... Deeper than the deepest sea.
(3) What a wonderful redemption! Never can a mortal know.
How my sin, tho' red like crimson... Can be whiter than the snow.
(4) Every need His hand supplying... Every good in Him I see.
On His strength divine relying... He is all in all to me.
(5) By the crystal flowing river... With the ransomed I will sing.
And forever and forever Praise and glorify the King.
Refrain:
All that thrills my soul is Jesus!
He is everything to me;
And the fairest of ten thousand,
In my blessed Lord I see.
Have a wonderful night!
