Lord's Day Thoughts

O Lord,

I have a wild heart,

and cannot stand before Thee...;

My mind is a bucket without a bottom...,

My will is without power of decision or resolution.

My heart is without affection and full of leaks,

My memory has no retention,

so I forget easily the lessons learned,

and Thy truths seep away.

Give me a broken heart that yet carries home the water of Grace.

He shall drink of the brook in the way;

therefore shall he lift up his head.

Psalm 110.7 - Common Prayer

He drinks from any stream he has to cross,

then charges forward triumphing.

Psalm 110.7 - Moffatt
