Two years ago, Allen gave us a 3-sentence prayer in a series of sermons he entitled “3 Prayers to Last a Lifetime.”
You, I adore.
Lord, have mercy.
Into Your hands.
I found it to be powerful then. I find it to be powerful now.
I offer it anew this day, intermingling personal thoughts, lifting it from my own heart to the Father’s.
* * *
When all the earth’s pleasures are swept away,
yet You remain,
You are enough.
Holy! Worthy! Glorious!
I need. So I ask. And You supply.
I sin. So I sorrow. And You forgive.
Saved.
Secure.
Satisfied.
In the blessed name of Jesus,
I pray,
I love,
I worship.
May it always be so. Amen.

How absolutely beautiful, Lisa. I'm so glad I stopped by. These three simple lines could rescue me in a heartbeat.
I'm whispering them now...
Yes very powerful! Thank you for sharing!
Oh, the power in those nine words.
So, so glad I stopped by.(I saw your link at Ann's.)
You ministered to my heart today.
Beautiful, simply power wrapped in a few syllables.
May you be drenched in his love today,

Did you take all these beautiful photographs? I seem to remember seeing that rainbow somewhere else. If you have borrowed the images of others, would you mind linking to the photographer? I'm sure they'd welcome the credit! Thank you so much.
what beautiful pics and what profound, yet simple truth!
Enjoy Jesus!
I like this -- the directness, the simplicity. Sometimes the most meaningful and life-changing prayers are the simplest.
Thanks for stopping by my new blog.
Oh, I am slow of mind, heart.
But I can grasp this, three 3 word prayers.
Thank you.
I've prayed these with you today, in the comings and communing.
Keep shining Jesus...
All's grace,
Ann
