July- for the singles of The One Body of Christ in midland

oh, God, rain down in abundance upon Your men and women here who need refreshing in the dry places of our lives!

cause the earth around us to swell together again with You so that all cracks and crevices are filled with You again.

come to this dry people in desert places and give to drink of That which totally satisfies thirsty souls.

replenish the depleted, that our tongues would praise You again.

God! in Your mercy, please repeat what we've forgotten or misheard; for that which we did hear, we have not been good stewards of. then we wonder how it is that You seem to not be speaking.

sensitize the dull, Lord, for our senses we have not been exercised/ sharpened as we should, so all aorund us...suffer.

Forgive us, Lord, for too often asking, "when?" or "why?" when we just should've obeyed.

God!  restore in Your mercy to our children that which we have lost, or defaulted on, that a righteous legacy may flow thicker through us to them.

"for it is good, say I, that I hear knees piercing dirt and bellies hit the floor, in right posture, before Me.

it touches My ear as a sweet and missed hum in the distance below,
lips parting again in murmured praise Heavenward.

yes, go down low, that I may lift you up..."
