Come Lord Jesus,

send your Spirit upon me

as a shaft of light

breaking through the

clouds on a winters day,

catch my eye afresh,

demand my attention!

+

Come Lord Jesus,

send your Spirit upon me

as a storm wind

stirring leaves

that have lain too

long, break through

the blanket of comfort,

and call me to life again.

+

Come Lord Jesus,

send your Spirit upon me

as refreshing rain

in the desert places

of my soul, and

cause the seeds of hope

long dormant now

to flourish and flower

in vibrant response.

+

Come Lord Jesus,

send your Spirit upon me,

dazzle me,

stir me,

revive me,

shake me,

overwhelm me,

awaken me….

…discomfort me

do not leave me

as I am…

+

Come Lord Jesus,

send your Spirit upon me,

touch my heart,

revive my soul,

remind me of your

ever present love.

Picture entitled “The Dance of life” is by Vijay Kochar.

He describes it as based on the dance of Shiva- interestingly I see the Holy Spirit’s power and the empty tomb!
