Food & Strength

Jesus said,
‘I have food you know nothing about.’
How we need that.
Food that fills the gaps of longing,
Food that feeds us in a way nothing else can,
Food that inspires us when we are crumbling,
Food that brings courage in our fear,
Brings us hope in our despair, 
Purpose when we are wandering 
And trust in our gnawing worry.
Feed us please, we pray,
As we bring our emptiness,
And the gaps in our lives,
To you.

John 4 v 32

Strength

It was by your power and strength,
Your presence and assurance
That you led your people.
Not by their own might or resources,
But the food of your inspiration and love.
And so it is today,
Our strength is often lacking,
We need more than our own might or resources,
We need the food of your love,
The fuel of your inspiration,
It’s your power and strength,
Your presence and assurance,
That leads us on and shows us 
your truth, your ways, your love.

Psalm 44 v 3
