You Are God: A Psalm of Praise

12/17/2015

You are the God of Amen
Faithful and True
May I be Your steadfast witness
You are the God Who Sees Me
Who knows me and thinks of me
May I know You O Lord
You are my All Sufficient God
Perfect and Complete
May I walk lacking nothing
You are the Living and Resurrected Lord
Who died and rose again.
May I live as a new creation in You
You are the God Who Sanctifies
Holy and Exalted
May I stand out as Your chosen holy child
You are my Benevolent and Loving Father
Who gives good gifts to His children
May I exhibit your nature
You are the God of Peace
Who sustains me
May I thank you in every circumstance
You are the All Powerful God
For Whom nothing is impossible
May I do all things through You
You are the God of Love
Who gave Yourself to the world
May I love as You do.

A Psalm of Praise to God With Me

I wallowed in poverty. I struggled in scarcity.

I closed my eyes and I cried out, “Give me more!”

But instead, You took my hand, opened my eyes,

and taught me the difference between need and want.

Flames devoured my belongings. Fire revealed my hardship.

I closed my eyes and I cried out, “Take me out of this suffering!”

But instead, You took my hand, opened my eyes,

and walked beside me.

Illness ate away at me until no strength remained.

I closed my eyes and I cried out, “Take away this sickness and make me strong!”

But instead, You took my hand, opened my eyes,

and gave me your strength.

I was desolate. I thought I was abandoned.

I closed my eyes and I cried out, “Take me out of this isolation!”

But instead, You took my hand, opened my eyes,

and revealed yourself to me in manifold ways.

You are with me through

the suffering,

the joy,

the poverty,

the plenty

the taking,

the giving,

the pain,

and the comfort.

You taught me to depend on You through my dependence.

You don’t take me out of the fire

You are my God through it.

You don’t make me rich

You are my God through my deficiency.

You are constant.

I am yours always.

You hold me in your hand always

And nothing can take me away.

You will never relinquish me.

You are always with me,

Emmanuel.

A PSALM OF PRAISE OF GRATITUDE

Father God in the highest of the heavens holy is your name, and holy you are here we are on this earth as daughters and sons of God. You put all things in their place, all the things you've made, were made through Christ my Savior. And all things hold together by the word of his power.

As I reflect on your goodness, on your mercy, on your love, on your grace, I feel indebted to you for the rest of my life because of how good you are to us. For everything that you have already done for us we should be eternally grateful but you don't stop there and you continue to work and to mold us, and to bless us, and to love us, and to grow us to be more and more like your Son. You also give your Spirit without measure, you give good gifts to your children all of the time, you lavish us with your love through your Holy Spirit.

Who are we to deserve such mercy and grace from the all-powerful God and Creator of the world? Who are we to deserve such attention in our finiteness? Who are we to deserve such a sacrifice to be made by your Son on the cross who took our shame and took our sin and paid the price for all of those who confess him as their Lord and Savior? Who are we to petition things from you who has already given everything, including his one and only son already, who are we to ask for anymore? But only a God as good as our Father who continues to hear our prayers and to take our requests. But one thing we do is to make sure that we give you praise, and adoration, and honor, and glory that is due to your holy name Father God we lift up our hands and we close our eyes and we lift up our souls to you God because you are good. You are more than good, you are great. And you are more than great you are superbly awesome God. And we love you. Amen.
