Father,

You are the God who started it all. You knew us and set us apart before You created us. And You are the God who stays. Even after all our sin and rebellion, You just won’t leave. We praise Your for Your faithfulness to us, for keeping Your promise to David and to Your people, despite a history of failure and idolatry.

God, we are just like the Israelites. We’ve been guilty of forgetting all You’ve done for us. We’ve been camels in the desert—aimless without guidance. We’ve been wild donkeys who follow every lust and desire. And we’ve brushed off the thought of judgment. Instead of turning to You when we’re in need, we exhaust ourselves trying to dig our own cisterns, but they crack and break. We’re exhausted, God, and we are sinners and we repent.

We need the refreshment that comes from You and Your Word and Your nearness. Jesus, You are the living water! You are the well that never runs dry! You have given us all of Yourself already, so help US to give YOU more of OURSELVES.

We love You too. Amen.
