He is Restorer
I AM: The Truth About God
I want to believe the truth about God so that I C A N become the person I AM created to be.
Restorer
Isaiah 35:1-2
“The desert and the parched land will be glad; the wilderness will rejoice and blossom. Like the crocus, it will burst into bloom; it will rejoice greatly and shout for joy. The glory of Lebanon will be given to it, the splendor of Carmel and Sharon; they will see the glory of the Lord, the splendor of our God.”
Prayer
Father,
You see the parts of my heart that have become stagnant. You see the areas of my life I have bound up for fear of tearing open painful wounds. I know it is Your will for vitality to flow from every crevasse of my being. You long for me to keep nothing from You but to trust Your healing salve in every part of me. In my ignorance I resist the pain or discomfort Your prodding might bring, not recognizing the immensity of freedom that will burst forth when I allow You to lead me through uncomfortable terrain. Give me faith to stand firm in Your restoring power, even if it is uncomfortable. Help me to believe that as I allow You to work in every part of me, I will experience abundant life.
