When We Come Together In One Place

Lord, speak as we seek your precious truth. When questions errupt, provide the only answers we need to dig deeper for the cooling water of life that flows beneath the surface of the dark - the dark that threatens to take our breath away.

When the day of Pentecost had arrive, they were all together in one place. Acts 2:1

Lord, we want to be in that one place where the power of your Spirit pours out upon the dry and weary soul.

We want to hear the rushing wind of your breath, in the quiet of the night, as we struggle within the lonely silence.

We want to understand your word, as if it were the reverberating heartsong of our transformed life.

We want to be astounded and amazed by the sharing of your truth, as it pierces our hearts like a threaded needle, stringing our lives together like precious pearls.

We want to stand as one body together with those who come to this place to seek the tenderness of your touch in the silent solitude of waiting.

May it be for us as it was for them, as we praise your Holy name and seek your favor for ALL people!

Father,

i add my prayer to Yvette's. There is no darkness where You are. Give us the questions, Lord ...

then give us the answers.

Yes, Lord give us the questions. Lord, reveal to us how to be light to this generation, to be light of your truth and love. Yes, Lord, I agree with Yvette, help us to stand as one body together to receive a gentle touch of your love.

Just when I came in here this morning I had to leave before I could really check it out.
I loved this and how you ended here-
