Lord, may our prayer never be this. May we want all of you, God. May we want to be transformed by your Holy Spirit. Explode our souls! Give us ecstasy! Lord, we pray for new birth in You.
~~~~~~~~~~~
I would like to buy $3 worth of God, please.
Not enough to explode my soul or disturb my sleep,
but just enough to equal a cup of warm milk
or a snooze in the sunshine.
I want ecstasy, not transformation.
I want warmth of the womb, not a new birth.
I want a pound of the Eternal in a paper sack.
I would like to buy $3 worth of God, please.
