I need Thee

Thank Father for speaking life and light into us today and everyday. Thank you for your presence in our lives. Thank you for your ability and desire to forgive us for our wrongs. You told Paul that your grace and mercy were sufficient, and the your strength is made perfect in the midst of our weakness. As we get older Lord, and each day goes by, we come to realize that the following Hymn is true:

I need Thee, oh, I need Thee!
Every hour, yes Lord, I need Thee!
Oh, oh, bless me now, right now my savior, you know I come, yes Lord I come, I come to Thee!

Jesus, we are weak and feeble. On our best day all we can do is make a mess of life.  You are the glue that keeps us together. We come humbly, nervously at times, to the foot of the Cross. Here we cast our burdens Lord. For you said, "my yoke is easy, and my burden is light." We know that the weight of the world crushes us daily. Atlas is pictured holding it on his back, struggling to move. Meanwhile, You hold us in the palm of Your hand that no force or plot may pluck us out. Let us all run to the Lord and take up the life in Him that will caress us when we are hurting, hi five us when success is at hand, but never stops loving us despite any and all our wrongs amen
