Day by Day
Remember the lyrics from Godspell?
This song was actually a prayer written by Richard, Bishop of Chichester
in the 1200s....long before many of our modern day maladies and
illnesses, unemployment and crime, abuse and scandals.
Day by day
Day by day
Oh Dear Lord
Three things I pray
To see thee more clearly
Love thee more dearly
Follow thee more nearly
Day by day.
Wait! How many things is he praying about? Three!?!?!
I don't know about you, but there are many, many names on my prayer lists these days! Way more than 3!
Where is our Young Warrior on this list of 3 "things!?"
As we gather for Trey Tuesday (and Trey Monday as he receives his
new treatment each Monday) of course God wants us to lift Trey up,
petitioning
God's healing hand upon our Young Warrior! For God to protect Trey's
body through this new treatment! For Trey to be a #1 success story for
this new scientific clinical study!
Of course God cares about Jay and Rachel as they wonder and worry and
hope and trust through another attempt at destroying the tumors.
Of course God has set the doctors and nurses and facilities apart for Trey to receive God's very best!
And of course we ask God to surround Joe and Bella with His Shield!
But God has plans and goals for you!
Do you seek to see God more clearly?
Do you long to love Him more dearly?
Do you desire to follow Him more nearly?
Day by day by day by day by day?
"He has told you, O man, what is good;
And what does the LORD require of
you
But to do justice,
to love kindness,
And to walk humbly with your
God"
Malachi 6:8
