To Be Like a Child: August 2007
http://tobelikeachild.blogspot.com/2007_08_01_archive.html
To Be Like a Child. Wednesday, August 01, 2007. This school year, I was invited to guide a prayer group again. It's been five years since I last did it. Today, at prayer session, while the group was in silent prayer, I too prayed, and I told God that I was feeling apprehensive, scared, unworthy. I felt like Jeremiah. "It's not your work, but Mine," He reassured me. Posted by rowie at 10:44 PM. Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial 2.5 License. You can also find me here. Pray As You Go.

To Be Like a Child. Thursday, December 21, 2006. On the first Sunday of Advent, the choir at Church sang a song from my childhood that I really love (corny last two stanzas notwithstanding). It's by Martin Nystrom, based on the first lines of Psalm 42:. As the deer panteth for the water. So my soul longeth after Thee. You alone are my heart's desire. And I long to worship Thee. You alone are my strength, my shield,. To You alone may my spirit yield. You alone are my heart's desire,. Only You can satisfy.
