You are right, Karen, there is power in this statement. I am thy = I am His. This phrase is such a reminder that I am His. I am His to be created, I am His to be tuned, I am His to be taught. He is my teacher. He is the one who makes me new. I do not have the strive to do it on my own strength. I am His, period. What glory, what grace! Thank you Abba. Thank you Jesus. Thank you Spirit!hokiegal23https://www.blogger.com/profile/14916505919683905527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1093769222539934869.post-18190660200327020522016-06-08T06:45:41.875-04:002016-06-08T06:45:41.875-04:00Today "I am thy".

How can two short words paired together have such a profound impact on my spirit every time I hear them? Mystery, truth, rightness! God! So what could be more fitting for my identity before the great I am but to refer to myself as "I am thy".

Prayer for me hinges on starting at the place of realizing (as best I can) who is who in the relationship, He is the God who created and creates me. He wants to commune with me. How can I even respond to that? Wonderment! Worship! Humility! Love! Prayer happens.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
