all black with a little color

little else

More perfect than an exquisite dress,
more flawless than a diamond,
more alluring than a beautiful man,
more powerful than a lucrative career,
more safety than proximity to family and friends,
more than fortune, fame, a luxurious life,
is the beauty of the Holy Spirit poured out upon a people who desire Christ more than anything else.

worship in dc

You are the Most High God, the victorious I Am. You are high and exalted in the earth. Blessed are You, oh holy and righteous One. The sound of Your voice is a subtle stampede. Seraphs and angels cry of Your glory. Like the prophet Isaiah, I am ruined by inadequacy. I cannot withstand Your presence. My flesh cannot bear Your perfection.

But among Your people I worship You. I fall before Your throne with the nations. In the ruling city of our time, we worship the Ruler. Your modern-day Levitical priests praise Your infinite power before a desparate people. We lift our hands and shout in adoration. You desire our righteousness for Your sake.

Lord, You are ceaseless in love and matchless in power. Fill the temple with the train of Your robe. You are the all-inclusive, all-expenses-paid I Am.

Jehovah-Jireh, my Provider
Jehovah-Nissi, Lord You reign in victory
Jehovah-Shalom, My Prince of Peace
And I worship You because of who You are.
