Eccomi nel Tuo cospetto

"My heart says of you, "Seek his face!" Your face, Lord, I will seek."
-Psalm 27:8



"O God, I have tasted Thy goodness, and it has both satisfied me and made me thirsty for more. I am painfully conscious of my need of further grace. I am ashamed of my lack of desire. O God, the Triune God, I want to want Thee; I long to be filled with longing; I thirst to be made more thirsty still. Show me Thy glory, I pray Thee, that so I may know Thee indeed. Begin in mercy a new work of love within me. Say to my soul, "Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away." Then give me grace to rise and follow Thee up from this misty lowland where I have wandered so long. In Jesus' name, Amen."

-A.W. Tozer

I love this prayer.

Today I don't have many words, so I will live off of the Word of God and prayer. I am so thankful for the intercession of the Holy Spirit and the peace and joy that are not conditional upon circumstances.

I will seek His face.

All for His glory,

Ashley
