The Only Rock of My Salvation

O Changeless God, Under the conviction of thy Spirit I learn that the more I do, the worse I am, the more I know, the less I know, the more holiness I have, the more sinful I am, the more I love, the more there is to love. O wretched man that I am! O Lord, I have a wild heart and cannot stand before thee; I am like a bird before a man. How little I love thy truth and ways! I neglect prayer, by thinking I have prayed enough and earnestly, by knowing thou hast saved my soul. Of all hypocrites, grant that I may not be an evangelical hypocrite, who sins more safely because grace abounds, who tells his lusts that Christ's blood cleanseth them, who reasons that God cannot cast him into hell, for he is saved, who loves evangelical preaching, churches, Christians, but lives unholily. My mind is a bucket without a bottom, with no spiritual understanding, no desire for the Lord's Day, every learning but never reaching the truth, always at the gospel-well but never holding water. Give me a broken hear that yet carries home the water of grace.- Paradoxes/Valley of Vision

True Desperation

Lord, hear my prayer.
Guide me. Show me how You are to be glorified.
I love you.
I fear not doing just that.
Protect the ones I love.
Give ear to their plees as well as mine,
for I know that they are seeking you in this.
YOUR HAND IS SO EVIDENT IN ALL.
Give me a heart for the things you love,
and a HATE for the things you hate Lord.
Let me be wise with my time this week.
I DESIRE YOU Lord.
Thank you for who you are.
-K
