My God, Thank You For Drawing Yourself Near Me

October 9 Scripture Meditations Based on Luke 24 Key Verse – Luke 24:15 And it came to pass, that, while they communed together and reasoned, Jesus himself drew near, and went with them.
MY GOD, THANK YOU FOR DRAWING YOURSELF NEAR ME Thank You for drawing Yourself near me, pardoning my confessed guiltiness Indeed sanctifying me with Your salvation-righteousness For my soul to strive for holiness’ peacefulness In consciously pleasing You through faith of good works’ thoroughness. Thank You for drawing Yourself near me, humbling my arrogance Indeed abasing me with Your redemption-deliverance For my heart to subdue vanity’s extravagance In calmly submitting to You through meekness’ sustenance. Thank You for drawing Yourself near me, correcting my flawed faculty Indeed disciplining me with Your authoritative immutability For my diligence to overcome quality’s mediocrity In consistently trusting You through willing sacrifices’ sincerity. Thank You for drawing Yourself near me, subduing my frustration Indeed encouraging me with Your gladness-jubilation For my faith to vanquish failures’ exhaustion In ceaselessly seeking You through genuine servanthood’s dedication. Thank You for drawing Yourself near me, brightening up my worship Indeed meeting me with Your assurance-friendship For my prayer life to delight in Your offered relationship In closely enjoying with You Your fellowship along spirited worship. Thank You for drawing Yourself near me, propelling my determined labouring Indeed ministering unto me with Your presence-nurturing For my efforts to bear fruits of life-building’s rearing In continuously honouring You through faithful character’s gearing. Thank You for drawing Yourself near me, upholding my serene victory Indeed propping me with Your sanctification against transgression-misery For my good success to reflect Scripture-favor’s glory In cheerfully prioritizing You through obedient submission’s story.
