O Lord, how can we approach you in order to know you? Even as your forgiven and redeemed children we don't have the hearts and minds to comprehend your greatness. We taste and see that you are good but don't have the senses or sense to truly know the fullness of your goodness.
You bid us to come unto you and when we seek you we find you. What is it that we find? What part of you can we truly come to know?
Lord increase my capacity to experience you, to know you, to love you. Show me more of yourself, expanding my heart and mind to receive from you. Let my soul overflow with your grace, mercy, and love.
To suggest an overflow is to acknowledge that I am not big enough to hold all of you. It says that you offer such extravagant abundance that you cannot be contained. Lord, let the unmeasurable bounty of your love flood my whole being, heart, soul, and mind.
