Give us one pure and holy passion



I listened to this beautiful song this morning and made it my prayer for myself, Joey and each of the kids.

Lord, for me...
Give me one pure and holy passion
Give me one magnificent obsession
Give me one glorious ambition for my life
To know and follow hard after You

And for Joey and Jonah...
Give him one pure and holy passion
Give him one magnificent obsession
Give him one glorious ambition for his life
To know and follow hard after You

And for Hannah...
Give her one pure and holy passion
Give her one magnificent obsession
Give her one glorious ambition for her life
To know and follow hard after You

To know and follow hard after you
To grow as your dicsiples in your truth
This world is empty, pale, and poor
Compared to knowing you, our Lord
Lead us on and we will run after you
Lead us on and we will run after you

Missed seeing you today! Did Hannah tell you about my alarm clock fiasco?! :( It literally put me in a bad mood all day. Ugh.

HAHA! I got your reply! Yeah, Levi usually sleeps from 9pm to 8am, but today he slept until 9:15! Of course. You better keep your kids on Monday nights. I don't want them teaching Levi any crazy habits of 6:30 wake ups. :)

Well said, my friend. I love the chorus. "Lead us on and we will run after you." What more could you ever ask for for you and your family?
