Creator of our desires
Oh Lord, become the master of our passions, and the creator of our desires.
"In Love's service, only the wounded soldiers can serve."
Thornton Wilder, quoted in James S. Stewart, The Wind of the Spirit, page 155.
"All gracious affections that are a sweet odor to Christ, and that fill the soul of a Christian with a heavenly sweetness and fragrancy, are broken-hearted affections."
Jonathan Edwards, The Religious Affections, Part III, Section 6.
