A Follow-up Prayer

Posted on August 9, 2022 Written by Mark McIntyre Leave a Comment


As a follow-up to yesterday’s post, I want to offer up some lyrics from a song by Randy Thompson. The song is titled Lord Take Me.

I was listening to this song after writing the post about praying to counteract anxiety and thought my readers might find the chorus helpful as a prayer:

Lord, take me
Lord, break my heart
Leave me wanting only You
Lord, make me a man of Your will
Oh Lord, show me more of You

That is what I need today; to be left with wanting only Jesus . . .

I have some really good news and some (sort of) bad news.

Living up to our Facebook Page

We probably all have at least one acquaintance who makes us nuts with their social media posts because we know that their life is not as pleasant as Facebook would make it appear. According to Facebook, every social event they attend is wonderful and they had a great time and were appreciated by all. This […]

Question 20

Did God leave all mankind to die in sin and misery?

We like to think of ourselves as free moral agents with the ability to control our own destinies. We don’t want to have anyone tell us what we can or can’t do. We are taught that such freedom is our birthright and no-one should be able to take this away from us.
