awakening

8x10 ink, walnut stain, watercolor

 "in our hearts, Lord, in this nation awakening/Holy Spirit, we desire awakening

for You and You alone/awake my soul awake my soul and sing

for the world You love/Your will be done let Your will be done in me

in Your presence/in Your power awakening/for this moment/for this hour awakening

for You and You alone/awake my soul awake my soul and sing

for the world You love/Your will be done let Your will be done in me

like the rising sun that shines/from the darkness comes a light

i hear Your voice and this is my awakening."

"if I ever shut off the supply of rain from the skies 

or order the locusts to eat the crops or send a plague on my people, 

and my people, my God-defined people, 

respond by humbling themselves, 

praying, 

seeking my presence, 

and turning their backs on their wicked lives, 

I'll be there ready for you

I'll listen from heaven

forgive their sins

and restore their land to health."
