May feel our hearts burn within us


Good Thursday morning, my friends.

No sermon this morning, just this beautiful prayer by George Dawson.  Take the time to read it a few times and meditate on it's soul refreshing message.


Grace and peace be yours in abundance,
Bruce

Grant unto us, Almighty God, that we, 
communing with one another and with Thee, 
may feel our hearts burn within us, 
until all pure, and just, and holy, and noble things of God and man may be to us lovely, 
and we may find nothing to fear but that which is hateful in Thine eyes, 
and nothing worth seeking but that which is lovely and fair therein. 

Let the divine brightness and peace possess our souls, 
so that, fearing neither life nor death, 
we may look to Thy lovingkindness and tender mercy to lift us above that which is low and mean within us, 
and at last to give the spirit within us the victory, 
and bring us safe through death into the life everlasting. 

Hear us of Thy mercy, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

-- George Dawson
