"i invite YOU in": OH LORD. YOUR NAME. AMEN.

Oh Lord, I do not know why You have found favor with me, nor can I ever explain properly how gracious and merciful You have been with my life, for there are no words that could express such magnitude, such greatness, such splendor.  Your NAME alone is worthy to be praised and adored. With no solitary act behind it and just three letters on a piece of paper, G-O-D, is worth more than life itself. Your NAME holds more weight than this world and at the sound of your NAME alone, the hearts of mankind shatter and nations crumble.  But You declare more than just Your NAME and even dirt takes upon life when You breathe on it. You knew that man would trample upon himself, thus You pulled him from that which is found beneath his shoes, that which he will ultimately return to.Oh Lord, You have given us the free gift of salvation, for ALL have been saved, but not everyone accepts it. You are the only Life that will give dirt its direction. And I deserve the mud, yet You have made me clay. And in Your hands, Lord, it matters not what my shape began as, but what You will form me to be. I cannot smooth myself out, and I even understand the need to break me down thoroughly in order to build me up properly.Oh Lord, that I may bless You indeed, and that You would expand my opportunities, my influence, and my territory; but not my will-- Yours, alone, be done! Oh Lord, that Your hand would be with me, that You would keep me from evil, that I may cause no more pain. No more pain, Lord. AMEN.
