A Pastor’s Prayer (On Sun AM)…

August 16, 2009 by Mere Agency Support

Father,

You have brought me out of darkness into Your light,
And called me to tell those in darkness of Your light.

You have sent me as salt into the earth,
And use my stewarding of Your Word
to call others as salt into the earth.

You found me when I was lost,
And have set me apart to find the lost,
And equip the saints to find the lost.

Give grace, I pray, to me in this hour,
To manifest Your Word in humbled pow’r.

In my words may You be praised,
Your people injured and then graciously raised.

I bow before You in desperate need,
For Your sweet mercies I insatiably plead.

Allow this to happen because of Your Son,
In His name I pray…may Your will be done.

Amen.

From One Degree To Another?

Yeah, that's right. My one, consuming passion is Jesus Christ, my Lord. I'm totally gripped by one message: the Gospel - the good news that God came after me when I was far from Him. So, the life I live, I live by faith in Him: He loved me and gave Himself for me.

From One Degree To Another is the change that He's accomplishing in me by grace. Growing downward in humility, upward into Him, outward toward others, and inward with renewal characterize my existence.

This site is where I flesh all of these types of things out, including my life as a slave to Jesus, husband, father, coffee-enjoyer, and pastor. I hope it encourages you.
