The Prayer of The Thirsty

 

Lord, I come thirsty. 

I come to drink, to receive.

 

I receive your work on the cross and in your resurrection.  My sins are pardoned, and my death is defeated. 

 

I receive your energy.  Empowered by your Holy Spirit, I can do all things through Christ, who gives me strength. 

 

I receive your lordship.  I belong to you.  Nothing comes to me that hasn’t passed through you. 

 

And I receive your love.  Nothing can separate me from your love.
