We All Need Mercy

Don’t be embarrassed.  Without His mercy none of us would even exist.  Bringing forth the manifestation of His glory from nothing is the way He shows that His love is infinite. And He loves to love.  He loves and loves, shows forth His love, rejoices in His love, and loves endlessly. He became man so that His love could reach us in our nothingness.

So find the place in yourself where you know that you are nothing and begin to pray from out of that place.



He Loved Them To The End . . . .


Beloved Jesus, I adore You.
Here is Your Love
to the end….
to the silence,
to the smallness,
to the inside of every moment.
This is Your Glory:
Love inexhaustible
   poured out in earthen vessels;
Love Creator of the burning stars;
Love Creator of the angels—
   those great, gigantic, magnificent, comprehending spirits.
Love Creator of man….
   master of the earth and its things,
   yet a tiny speck under the sky;
   image of God,
   dust and ashes.
   great and miserable,
   hungry man, hungry with a thousand hungers….

Beloved Jesus, I adore You.
Here is Your Love;
Here is Your Glory:
Love inexhaustible
   poured out in earthen vessels;
Love beyond all measure
   become a morsel of food and drink
   in our tiny mouths.
Given and given, poured out and broken.

Glory to You, Love Eternal!
