I’ve included below a few prayers I’ve written in my journal throughout my time here in Swaziland. I hope that they are able to provide truth that maybe you need to speak over yourself or encouragement in some way for your own walk in faith.

Jesus you are the only one who can fill any empty voids inside of me. I love you Lord. Holy Spirit speak to me through the waves and the sand and the giddy hearts. Speak to me through those I love and overwhelm me with your mighty presence. I ask that I would be filled whole by you, that I would abide in you, and that my focus would be a pointed gaze into heaven’s eyes. 

Jesus I walk to you atop tumbling waves. Even if it takes quite some time for the storm to quiet I will come to you knowing that I am safe where you call me. Right now you are calling me to persevere. Thank you Jesus that you never leave me nor forsake me. I ask for your divine wisdom as I go through this. Grow me in your mighty love and kindness. I love you Father. 

You are faithful Lord. I rejoice and have hope because you are a good Father. You fulfill what you have inherited to me. Thank you Jesus. 

I feel faint from your love Jesus. It courses through my veins hot, thick, alive. I am living and breathing in the heavenly realm. Confident in your sovereignty. Confident in your proudness of me. Confident that you have blessed me with the wildest of love. Oh how my heart beats for you Jesus as your spirit pours from my lips. I am anointed by golden oil. My sureness in who you are and what you have promised sings out and echoes off the canyon ledges of my soul. My life is a gift because you are perfect my sweet, sweet Father. I love you. 

To love you, to love them, to love me. The only way I can heal is to press into your embrace. Take me as I run into your arms Jesus. I need to be kept. Comfort me as if I am a small child. Give me direction and gentle words as a mother would. I don’t want to be independent. Dependence on you, Jesus, that is what I long for. 

Love you friends.
