My soul clings to you,Your right hand upholds me.
A letter written to a friend:
I wrote this in my journal right before you asked me to pray for you last night:
“This is My commandment, that you love one another, just as I have loved you.” – John 15
This gives us a glimpse into the heart and life of Jesus and how he treated those around Him. They must have been shown much love by Jesus, because they showed much love for one another. Christ loved personally those around Him.
Abba, put this heart in me, allow me to faithfully and fully invest in the lives around me. Let me hold nothing back nor hold on to things that are fleeting, but abandon my life to give. Reveal to me your love. Let me come close to the love of Jesus, in a real and personal and intimate way.”
I need prayer for the same thing, to be able to come face to face with the reality of Jesus’s love, to experience His tenderness and strength of love, the lion and the lamb. I need to know a love bigger than my own.
Pray fervently for both of us,
Your brother
