"For my determined purpose is that I may know Him, that I may progressively become more deeply and intimately acquainted with Him, perceiving and recognizing and understanding the wonders of His Person more strongly and more clearly, and that I may in that same way come to know the power outflowing from His resurrection which it exerts over believers, and that I may so share His sufferings as to be continually transformed in spirit into His likeness even to His death... " Phil 3:10 Amp

Prayer to Know God More Intimately

Desperately waiting
Craving the touch …
Of Your Spirit mingling with mine

Softly You whisper
I strain to hear
Will I recognize You this time?

Your love so surrounds me
I’m aching to know
So ready to experience Christ

O God, I run to You with open arms
Forsaking all “gain”
To live by pure faith
LORD, here I am with open arms
God, hear my plea
‘Cause You’re everything to me
Open arms

Can’t live without You
Nothing on my own
Keep my heart filled with You alone

Wanting to KNOW You
Wanting You here
I’d do anything precious LORD

Nothing else is worth it
I breathlessly wait
So close … will it be today?

O God, I run to You with open arms
Accepting the pain
To walk in pure faith
LORD, here I am with open arms
Help me to see Your love’s transforming me
Open arms
