This Summer has been wonderfully filled with various things to, which is great because I love being active, but it's also presented the challenges of not having quality time with God, I have been able to pray and read His word , but not to a 'satisfying point'. I guess God word is like the replenishment that rids hunger. Well in that case - I've been in a spiritual diet ! Which isn't good. 

I wrote the following words when about a week ago - I felt so 'wanting' for the word of God - I needed it desperately to give me life ; as it always does. 

Hebrews 4'12

For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.

To the Filling of My Heart

To the filling of my heart  I will pray.

To the quenching of my thirst I will stay,

Closing into the living waters that replenish my soul

In the morning and all of the day.

Unnecessary pleasures I will flee.

Before You I come with all in me longing to be humble.

Though my mind is in need of desperate control.

Distractions may come, but I'll show them the door,

Sin will entice, But I want it no more.

The 'Mary' in me wants to sit at your feet,

The 'Martha' I see wastes the time to fleet.

May self-control be my song.

The feet of the cross is where I belong. 

Before the time is finally gone.
