There Is None Like You!

"There is none like You. No one else can touch my heart like You do. I could search for all eternity long and find there is none like You. None like You. Not one like You. No, not a one. Your mercy flows like a river wide and healing comes in Your name. Helpless children are safe in Your arms. There is none like You. No one else can touch my heart like You do. I could search for all eternity long and find... There is none like You." 

"Jesus, my passion in life is to know You. May all other goals bow down to this journey of loving You more. Jesus, You've showered Your goodness on me, given Your gift so freely that there's one thing I'm longing for. Hear my hearts cry and my prayer for this life. Above all else, above all else, give me Yourself. Savior, the more that I see Your beauty, the more that I glimpse Your glory, my heart is captured by You. Jesus, You are my greatest treasure, nothing this world can offer could ever compare to You. So, hear my hearts cry and my prayer for this life. Above all else! Above all else! Above all else! Jesus, give me Yourself. More than anything! "

Lord Jesus,

Thank You that you do not create emotional distance because of our sin. Thank You that taking ownership of our sin allows the power of Your grace to abound! Thank You that confession leads to blessing. Thank You that a little is not enough! Thank You that Your intention is not to catch us and condemn us, but to love us, save us, and set us free! Thank You that You are slow to anger and abounding in love. Thank You that Your mercy is greater than Your judgement. Thank You that we can come to You just as we are.

"Bless (affectionately, gratefully praise) the Lord. O my soul; and all that is (deepest) within me, bless His holy name! Bless (affectionately, gratefully praise) the Lord, O my soul; and forget not (one of) all His benefits - Who forgives (every one of) all Your iniquities, Who heals (each one of) all Your diseases, Who redeems your life from the pit and corruption, Who beautifies, dignifies, and crowns you with loving-kindness and tender mercy..." (Psalm 103).
