“As a deer longs for flowing streams, so I long for you, God. I thirst for God, the living God. When can I come and appear before God?”
Psalms 42:1-2 CSB
We may find ourselves at times in tough spots and wonder when can I appear before God? Or, we may be asked to pray for others that wonder where are you God. The psalmist gives us a thought to ponder a visual that reminds us God is as close as a flowing stream and as assesible as a deer that longs for water.
Habakkuk 3:19 “God is my Strength and Shield– When we feel as though our burdens are too heavy to bear, God is our strength.”
Let us sing this worshipful song together as we pray for ourselves, one another, our families and friends.
1- As the deer pants for the water
So my soul longs after you
You alone are my heart’s desire
And I long to worship you
R- You alone are my strength, my shield
To you alone will my spirit yield
You alone are my hearts desire
And I long to worship you
2- I want you more than gold or silver
Only you can satisfy
You alone are the real joy giver
And the apple of my eye
3- You’re my friend and you are my Father
Even though you are my King
I love you more than any other
So much more than anything”
