Come, Lord Jesus

December 11, 2011 By Jean Wise

He who testifies to these things says, “Yes, I am coming soon.” Amen. Come, Lord Jesus.  Revelation 22:20


Come, Lord Jesus.

Yes Come, Lord, Jesus.
In this time of year as we approach the celebration of Your birth – we know you have come once before and will come once again.
Come Lord Jesus.
Draw closer so we can see You clearer.
Cross the thresholds of our hearts so we love you more.
Reach for our hands so we serve You better.
May our steps match Yours and follow only in Your paths.
May we only see Your face as we face the difficulties in life.
Come Lord Jesus.
Help me to see You as You are – Savior, King, Master, Lover
Slow me down so I don’t miss You.
Hush the noise in my heart – I want to hear You.
Come Lord Jesus.
I know I really don’t have to summon You – You are already here.
You wait, though, for my open hand and my obedient heart to turn to receive all Your love.
I know You are already present whether I sense You or not. Bidden or unbidden You arrive to save us.
Thank you for coming, Lord. Draw me closer, Lord.
Come, let’s sit together for a while and let me breath in Your spirit.
