Empty perspectives​

Our God, we live in an age where many do not seek, knock and ask so cannot find, enter or receive—for we have little faith or none! So absorbed are we in worldly pursuits and values, that You see us starved or skeletal in proximity of living Bread and Water which dispels forever all hunger and thirst.

You see us seduced and intoxicated with illusory pleasures that fade as a single match flame before the everlasting Sun of heavenly joy. You see our faith—even at zenith—to be faint or dead, ensnared as we are in temporal attractions that strangle our souls at this entrance to the eternal realities.

You see us falter, and fallen in the very shadow of divine strength. You yearn to enfold us, to warm us to life, to enlighten our minds, to give us peace and love, but You respect our freedom of choice.

Loving God please let us recognise ourselves as loved children of a great family passing through this life, and moving faithfully towards our eternal destiny of love in Your kingdom.
