Dear Jesus Christ, I need You. I want You. Thank You for letting me write.

I have to have Your Spirit guide me out of darkness into the light all over again. Forgive me my trespasses, my sins, and my iniquities.

Thank You for giving me breath in the writings of “In Presence of Spirit”—the whole of it, the completion in this decade, this time around.

Thank You for Your presence in every writing, prayer, praise, verse, song, and poem. I appreciate every page of our book: the originals, the edited versions, and the almost complete manuscript that I have only read.

Thank You for letting me write “In Presence of Spirit” in its entirety. Even though You and I are the only ones who know what I captured in writing with and through You, Jesus, it is meant to be like this for Your and my purpose. For Your goal is my purpose, and my mission is Your purpose, now and forevermore.

I love You, Jesus Christ. I believe everything: the Resurrection to life eternal in You, through You, and round about the glory of You. Lord, I miss You. I need You. I need to hear Your guiding voice. Furthermore, I require You to grab me out of darkness into the light of Your ever-presence.

Open my heart again so I can complete what You have given me to share with anyone who requires the only friend in the spirit of Your ever-loving presence.

I loved Jesus—I did, and I do. Help me finish the task at hand. Please, Lord, I require help with this glaucoma. I suffered too many attacks, thinking they were “eye migraines.” We require a Glaucoma Foundation in every state. We require a multitude of things, but first and foremost, I require You back, Jesus.

Show me what You want me to do. Guide me to it. Hold fast; my love is poured out to you in this, “Our Writings, In Spirit of Your Ever Loving Presence.”

Omnipotent and omnipresent in exquisite conversations with the Lord. Thank You, Jesus, for the communication. I had a blast knowing You are in me and I am in You, and that You are the Author through me, from You. I love You, Jesus. Furthermore, I love You with one heart to heal.

Thank You for letting me write. I could not find any words. It weighed heavy on my total being. Jesus, in Your name, Lord, bring Your love down to a oneness of truth, which is only through You, Jesus Christ.

You gave me You in “In Presence of Spirit,” and it is obvious after all is said, written, and complete in this, the extended book—the whole of the entire writings of “In Presence of Spirit”—that You, my love and my life, are the Author through me, with me, beside me, round about me, in every way. Forgive me for forgetting.

Sometimes life is too hard, and the cycles keep repeating themselves, worse in every generation. Help us stop the cycle of the past and bring the future to today in time, place, and significant reason.

These writings are my future because they are my past. So I wish to start living today what I maintain will help the world with one heart to heal.

Reflection

Written in December 2008, this deeply intimate prayer functions as an internal sanctuary of gratitude, total surrender, and visionary advocacy.

Reflecting upon a vast digital archive and a complex writing trail, the author celebrates an enduring, hidden partnership with Jesus Christ, identifying Him as the true source of every inspired page.
