When You're In Love (Crazy Love Week 6)

This weeks homework is to read over Psalm 63:1-5 (posted below) and spend time in prayer. Try reading it a couple times to let the words really sink in and allow them to affect your prayer time. Feel free to pray this scripture itself if other words won't come. Remember: God already knows what's in your heart, so feel free to be open with Him!

Psalm  63:1-5 (NLT)

O God, you are my God; I earnestly search for you.
My soul thirsts for you; my whole body longs for you
in this parched and weary land where there is no water.
I have seen you in your sanctuary and gazed upon your power and glory.
Your unfailing love is better than life itself; how I praise you!
I will praise you as long as I live, lifting up my hands to you in prayer.
You satisfy me more than the richest feast.
I will praise you with songs of joy.
