Thirsting

Thirsting For Filling


“As truly as there is in God a property of compassion...so truly there is in God a property of thirst and longing. By virtue of this longing in Christ, we have to long for God in response....The property of longing thirst comes from the endless goodness of God...Spiritual thirst will last in God as long as we are in need, drawing us up to God’s bliss.” - Julian of Norwich


Breathprayer:

Breathe in: Thirsting...

Breathe out:...for you, O God


Reflection:

“Hold the empty cup in your hands.

Let the emptiness remind you of your yearnings.

For whom and what do you most yearn or thirst?

Now hold the cup close to your heart.

Be thirsty for God.

Be filled with God.” (Joyce Rupp)


Scripture: Psalm 63

My Soul is thirsting for you O God.


Journal:

I am thirsty for....


Prayer:

Ask God to quench your thirsty places...Fill you that you might know you have enough.
