"LONGING"

There's a deep longing inside of me to be with the Lord. Even the Apostle Paul desired this before he passed, and John the Beloved said, "Even so, come..." I dare say, most all who are saints of the living God, feel or have felt the same. 

There's a deep longing and a growing unsettledness inside this world... a groaning for redemption. Such a longing that it has set the natural order of the earth reeling to and fro... Waves roar, thunder rolls, the earth quakes and fire pours from beneath sending smoke billowing into the atmosphere.

Oh God, How long? Oh Father, How much longer?

There is a groaning of souls rising up, reaching forth, looking. Searching for hope; for answers which are unanswerable in the earthly realm in which we live. 

There's a sound of weeping... and yet, a sound of children's laughter; awakening the realization that there is still hope in this life. And you, Lord... are that hope!

So, come Lord! Come and bring answers to our questions, bring joy to the sorrow, healing to the wounded, hope for the weary and strength to those who are cast down unto the ground. 

Bring light into the darkness that will shine upon the way we are to take... For the road that many have been walking, is not even close to the path they were meant to take. 

Calm the storms, silence all other voices except yours,...because we need to hear your voice alone.

Save us, rescue us, and heal this land.
