A Prayer for True Worship

A prayer based on Ephesians 3:19. My prayers as a child were of the silent kind, the rote kind, the unbelieving kind. They dangled like the Jewish leaders’ tassels from their robes. They hung in the air, a long string of names of people I feared would go to hell. I was afraid of many things and this is why I got baptized in my father’s church, and why I eventually stopped eating. Because somehow for this pastor’s daughter, all the Bible stories and all the going to church and all the organ-hymns couldn’t fill me the way I knew love was supposed to fill. What does faith look like for you, right now, friend? Is it a quiet thing leaking out of your eyes? Is it a loud, whooping, travailing in the Spirit? Or is it a bowed-over thing, bent low on the floor? Listen to today's podcast episode from Emily T. Wierenga. Would you like to have today's episode in written form? Consider joining our Patreon!
