Your Special Heritage

Lord,
How often do you call unto the hearts of your children-
always longing to bring us into places within the depths of Your Heart
wherein we have not yet been?

Always continuing to call us deeper into Your very Presence
away from the things we know,
on into those places we don’t- but You know.

We are Your people, Your special heritage-
those whom You call to represent 
Your Name in this earth.

To that end:

We are the largest army that ever marched
across the face of this globe
throughout the ages.

Spanning all walks of life,
we have represented You, our one, true Lord,
not always faithfully but for the most part: YES.

It is this that we focus and concentrate on:

Your power invested and presented in each of us
to impact and effect the face of this life
and henceforth, each and every coming generation.

AMEN(So Be It!)
