Shaprness
Lord,
My world is filled with ethical shortcuts, Lord. The world's way of getting things done has no sharp edges, only rounded moral corners. I want the sharpness, the exactness of your way, Father, that cuts through self-deceit and wrongness of the world's way.
Amen.

Wow, the powerful thoughts that came out of that really were what I needed! Thanks, Aimee!
that's really neat. today, before I left Arlington, i was just sitting on the beach and i was thinking about God's ways and how we are to follow them exactly. how nothing should hinder us from taking what he says and putting it exactly into practice. wow. God works in such powerful ways!!!
Thanks Aimee. wonderful as always.
Yeah! Right On! What an awesome prayer!
"Oh God, please give me the strength to never take shortcuts on the path of your will. Lord, please be my strength when I feel like doing anything but what is "sharp". Please uphold me, and give me your endless energy to do what you want me to do."
"COME TO ME, ALL YOU WHO ARE WEARY AND BURDENED, AND I WILL GIVE YOU REST. TAKE MY YOKE UPON YOU AND LEARN FROM ME, FOR I AM GENTLE AND HUMBLE IN HEART, AND YOU WILL FIND REST FOR YOUR SOULS. FOR MY YOKE IS EASY AND MY BURDEN IS LIGHT."
MATT. 11:28-30
