God, you know our hearts. You see us inside and out. You know what we need despite our wants. You tell us how good you are by the works of your hands.
Father, you picked me, you know me; you see my fear and my hope. In you all things are made new and whole. You leave iron to sharpen iron, you leave room for love to grow. Try as I might, I cannot comprehend your ways or your plans, yet I know they are good. Search my heart, Lord, know my thoughts, see deeper than the surface, understand more than I choose to show. I am your child, held safe in your arms. Your peace surrounds me like a soft breeze. I hear your voice, I hear you without ears, without words, without full understanding – but I hear you.
And I love you.
I love you for being more than a father, I love you for being unpredictable, I love you for being more than good.
Oh God of joy, God of my heart. God who holds eternity in His heart – you are beautiful and Holy and glorious. My hope for the future, my trust in every moment, my peace in the turmoil. Your promises rise to greet me with the morning light, they captivate me with your color and grace.
Father, write your character on my heart, put your words in my mouth, honor me with your anointing oil, and never stop humbling me with your majesty.
With your unfailing love
you lead the people you have redeemed.
In your might, you guide them to your sacred home.
Exodus 15:13
