(music) Oh I Want to Know You More (Steve Fry, We Are Called) [3:55] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8p30zSDTFkQ

Lyrics, and Prayer …

Just the time I feel
That I've been caught
In the mire of self. ---

Just the time I feel
My mind's been bought
By worldly wealth. ---

That's when the breeze begins to blow -
I know, The Spirit's call ---
And all my worldly wanderings
Just melt into His love.

Oh, I want to know You more!
Deep within my soul I want to know You,
Oh, I want to know You.

To feel Your heart and Know Your mind,
Looking in Your eyes stirs up within me,
Cries that says I want to know You ---
Oh, I want to know You more!
Oh, I want to know You more.

When my daily deeds
Ordinarily lose life and song,
My heart begins to bleed,
Sensitivity to Him is gone. ---
I've run the race but set my 'own' pace
And face a shattered soul,
But the gentle arms of Jesus
Warm my hunger to be whole.

Oh, I want to know You more!
Deep within my soul I want to know You,
Oh, I want to know You.
And I would give my final breathe
To know You in Your death and resurrection,
Oh, I want to know You more
Oh, I want to know You more
Oh, I want to know You more

Who can weigh the value of Knowing You?
Who can judge the worth of Who You Are?
Who can count the Blessings of loving You?
Who can say just how great You are?

Lord, You are more precious than silver
Lord, You are more costly than gold
Lord, You are more Beautiful than diamonds
Nothing I desire compares with You

1. Open my eyes, that I may see
glimpses of truth thou hast for me;
place in my hands the wonderful key
that shall unclasp and set me free.

Silently now I wait for thee,
ready, my God, thy will to see.
Open my eyes, illumine me, Spirit divine!

2. Open my ears, that I may hear
voices of truth thou sendest clear;
and while the wavenotes fall on my ear,
everything false will disappear.

Silently now I wait for thee,
ready, my God, thy will to see.
Open my ears, illumine me, Spirit divine!

3. Open my mouth, and let me bear
gladly the warm truth everywhere;
open my heart and let me prepare
love with thy children thus to share.

Silently now I wait for thee,
ready, my God, thy will to see.
Open my heart, illumine me, Spirit divine!

So anyways.. it won't accept any more 'new replies' in it. Was due to the Server changes that LL recently had.
I understand that many of the longer-time members have experienced "disconnects" to email notifications they've had on threads that they run.

For TEMPORARY,
since I'm displaced,
I'll post a few things here having to do with the more faith-y posts I had done in 'GP' Part I.

THEME--
We Have Been Changed!!? .. ROFL

{lyrics}
The trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible,
and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on
incorruption, and this mortal must put
on immortality.
- 1 Corinthians 15:52-53

I'm here in Div Div today.
The *sonics* in my apartment are Rocking and QUAKING!!
The water bottle I've been drinking from is on the table.
Instead of ruffled rippling surface waters--
today, the surface has choppy-waters!
Wouldn't want to be a little germ in a rowboat!!!
Would be terribly rough seas today.

Lord, I will lift mine eyes to the hills--
Knowing my Help is coming from You.
Your 'Peace' You give me.. in times of the storm----

You are 'The Source' of my Strength!
And You are.. the 'Strength' of my life!!

I lift my hands.. in Total Praise to You

Amen, Amen {7-fold}

May people see the burdens of others as much as they see their own (which are often more alike than they realize). May those burdens either cease or become a means of bonding together in unity rather than bitterness and envy that alienates us from all others, or worse, tries to form tribes that hate against the rest of the world, becoming part of the disease masquerading as its own cure. May trial bring strength instead of hopelessness. May we realize the power of God/dess's will exists within us all, and it's our choice whether to act on it or not. May we look at each other and see the spark and love of God/dess in each other than a devil which vexes us.

I say this prayer not only for all in the world, but for myself as well.

(music) Trust Love (Open Up Your Eyes) written by Jeff Williams:

quote:

---

When you don't know where to turn to
And you're sure all hope is gone
When the day you waited for won't come
And dark won't yield to dawn
(Trust love!)
Open up your eyes
(Trust love!)
The truth is there but sometimes in disguise
The way's uncertain but we're together
Moving toward the light
When we trust in love and open up our eyes

Time Will Tell by Susan Anton:

quote:

---

Love can play a new tune
On this carousel.
It may be tomorrow,
But only time will tell.

Somewhere in the darkness
There must be a light,
Leading us together
Through the misty night.

And maybe in the new dawn
We can break the spell.
It may be tomorrow,
But only time will tell.

There can be a new dream,
One for us to hold,
Made with peace and hope
And built upon the old.

Let there be a strong Protective Force
over The Elders of our Nations --
(especially asking today, for those in USA).
Let that Protection and Blessing extend
over those who Love them.

EXTEND this to the Nations around the Globe that we Share.
We Breathe same Atmospheres--
The Heavens and The Earth, Together. *heart*

I've done many prayers for the Youth before, through the years of LL postings since I've been registered here.

Now, the Concern is for my own generation, which has come into peril.

Stir the Hearts of the younger and all generations to Unite, Surround, and PROTECT our elders.

Lord, Let Your Powerful Guardian Angels Come Destroy
the effects of words, and every tongue that assaults the safety and peace of mind of people of this nation, and around the World.

*~
Let their words and notions become a deep SHAME to them.

Pray,
that we may be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men
-- 2 Thessalonians 3:2
*~

And for ALL Our Humans during this pandemic.
Comfort All Those that Grieve and Mourn The Loss of Lives, and of Livelihoods

Bring Quick Recovery for all who had been stricken.

Increase the Bonds of Love among People.
May we Cherish our Parts as Our Neighbor's Keeper.
Give us Magnanimous Hearts towards each other.
May Actions bring Healing, and reciprocate with a sense of Rewards Within, for our Sharing.

Bring nurturing Joy within the Heart.

Bring A Refreshment ..
And an Increased deep Appreciation of and for Each Other.
Let us See The Best in each other.
Protect us from those deceivers.

Thank you for replenishing the Earth during this brief time.
What a Miracle, with so much Hope.
Let the Earth Scientists have gleaned MUCH Wisdom during this time.
Anchor the Lessons Learned.
May we Grow through these in pleasant and surprising Ways.

Let there be a Spirit of PLENTY in Provisions for All.
No person left in Need.
Let them Receive, then Give from The Overflow.

Thank you for the Giving Souls who make this Possible.

Protect those in the Medical Help Fields.
Seal them from Harm that would kill or maim.
Give them a surprisingly ROBUST Immune System, as a Gift for Life.

Let Answers Come Forth, O God.
Increase joy in Compassionate Ease,
and Give Flows of Productivity
with The Ability To Do, more than ever.

Increase 'the liking' of the stranger, wherever we go--
and
Protect us from darkness.
Let there be an easy identifying and containment
of any who seek to do harm among us.
SHOW us whom we can Trust.

Infuse within,
a Nurturing Loving-Kindness to those in Need.

Give Refreshing Sparks of Energy,
and Bring A Satisfying Peace. *heart*

Increase exponentially, the ability of Medical Science to Discover, and to Cure!

Protect us! Render this soon inert.

I shall not fear the arrow by day
Nor shall I fear the terror by night

The God who governs angel armies
Has set encampments around me--
Whom shall I fear?

I shall not fear the arrow by day
Nor shall I fear the terror by night
The God who governs angel armies
Has set encampments around me--
'What'.. shall I fear?
