I Want a Heart like His

I want a heart like His…
I want a heart like this, full of…
Love and compassion for the lost
To give at all cost…
My life totally spent, poured out, completely used up
At the end of my days…
Giving God praise,
Let me…
Touch the leper, so he will know that God loves him so…
Cast out demons so they will flee, setting the captives free…
Let the world hear my shout…Father I forgive them!
I want a heart like Him…
I don’t need to walk on water…
But I do need faith…
Or turn water into wine…
But I do need the Holy Spirit within
I don’t need shiny things
What I crave, is a heart that brings
Honor, glory, praise,
Worship, life, grace
Redemption, salvation, wholeness,
Freedom, peace
Joy, gentleness,
Friend of God,
Love…
Don’t let me miss
Having a heart like Jesus!

I love the Lord Jesus Christ and am passionate about writing. I hope you enjoy the blog and come to visit often. Then the Lord answered me and said: “Write the vision And make it plain on tablets, That he may run who reads it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time; But at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, It will not tarry. “Behold the proud, His soul is not upright in him; But the just shall live by his faith. Habakkuk 2: 2-4
