Dear God, I have tasted Your goodness and it has satisfied me, yet it has made me thirst for even more. I am so painfully aware of my need for even more grace than I now enjoy; and even when I do not want more, I am ashamed of my lack of desire. I want You completely, mighty God, and I want to want You even more than I do.
Fill me with longing for You. Make me even thirstier. Show me Your glory, I pray, so that I may know You always better and better, growing in my faith and love.
From Your infinite mercy, begin a new work of love within me this moment. Say to my soul, ‘Rise up my love, my fair one, and come away.’ And give me the grace to rise up and follow You, from this misty lowland where I have wandered so long.
Amen
