Katie's prayer: Passion's "My Glorious"

There was not one line that stuck out to me tonight, there were many lines. Pretty much the whole song actually.

Tonight, I got the chance to go to XLT at St. Gabriel’s. Praise and Worship, followed by a speaker, followed by Adoration and then just a small amount of Praise and Worship. As always, it was amazing. There were so many things that God was moving in my heart tonight, and all of them are repeated somewhere in this song.

The world's shaking, With the love of God.... It’s amazing to me how much love God just pours out. All you have to do is ask for it. That’s what part of tonight was, being showered with God’s love for me.

Clouds are breaking, Heaven's come to earth, Hearts awakening, Let the church bells ring.... Really, isn’t this what Adoration is all about - Heaving coming to earth? Hearts awakening - Adoration is one of those things that can always jump-start my prayer life. Even when it’s been pretty good (like lately), it can still be jump-started by going to Adoration. Suddenly I feel more alive in my prayer, somehow more connected to God.

And all You ever do is change the old for new... Tonight’s speaker was a lady who had gotten two abortions in her life and talking about how she regrets them and how God healed her of those and from her drug usage and depression that came as a result of those abortions. This line actually came to me shortly after she finished talking. That’s basically what God did for her - changed her old (bad) in for new (good). And if He can do that for her, than He can definitely do that for me. Just because I’m a horrible sinner doesn’t mean good can’t come from it, doesn’t mean I can’t learn from it, doesn’t mean others can’t learn from it.


Dear Jesus, thank you for tonight. Thank you for all the things you did in my heart. Thank you for all the love you continue to shower down on me, even when I don’t realize it. P.S. I’m still a little frustrated with you for not giving me that sign I asked for, but I’ll be patient and wait for you to reveal that to me in your own time. Amen.
