Am putting on my battle gear...

I know today starts a major battle in my life. I have been praying to God to equip me for this battle. Last week, I have set the terms of this battle with my adversary's ambassador.

On my own, I know I have little chance of winning but I know I am going to this battle for God, with God and by God's grace, victory will be his.

As a deer

As the deer pants for the water
So my soul longs after You.

You alone are my heart's desire
And I long to worship You.

You alone are my strength my shield;
To You alone may my spirit yield.

You alone are my hearts desire
And I long to worship Thee.

You're my friend
And You are my brother
Even though You are a king.

I love you more than any other
So much more than anything.

I want you more than gold and silver
Only You can satisfy.

You alone are the real joy giver
And the apple of my eye.
