This is what my prayer time looked like this morning; workout clothes, sneakers, and my MP4 player.
I begrudgingly got out of bed this morning and decided to go for a walk. I’m so glad that I did. I had a great hour of worshiping and praising my Savior during the still moments of the morning, without much man-made noise to distract me.
Sometimes prayer for me is just repeating the words to a good song, wholeheartedly to my Savior.
Here were some of my prayers this morning (Thanks to Jeremy Camp’s Worship CD, Carried Me)
BEAUTIFUL ONE: Wonderful, so wonderful, is Your unfailing love, Your cross has spoken mercy over me. No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no heart could fully know, How glorious, how beautiful You are, Beautiful one I love You, Beautiful one I adore, Beautiful one, my soul must sing, Powerful, powerful, Your glory fills the skies, Your mighty work displayed for all to see, The beauty of Your majesty awakes my heart to sing, How marvelous, how wonderful You are. You opened my eyes to Your wonders anew, You captured my heart with this love, ‘Cause nothing on earth is as beautiful as You.
EMPTY ME: Holy Fire burn away, my desire for anything, that is not of you and is of me. I want more of you and less of me. I want more of you and less of me, yeah. Empty me, Empty me, yeah, Fill, won’t you fill me, with you, with you, yeah.
Said, let there be light
To a dark and formless world
Your light was born
You spread out your arms over empty hearts
Said, let there be light
To a dark and hopeless world
Your son was born
You made the world and saw that it was good
You sent your only son, for you are good
What a wonderful maker
What a wonderful savior
How majestic your whispers
And how humble your love
With a strength like no other
And the heart of a father
How majestic your whispers
What a wonderful God
No eye has fully seen how beautiful the cross
And we have only heard the faintest whispers
Of how great you are

I love Jeremy Camp’s music!! His songs ARE like prayers!!! I love those times when I am alone with the Lord in peace. I often wonder why I don’t do it more. 🙁
Thanks for sharing!
