I often pray that the Lord will change me.
I want to be more like Him.
I want to think like Him and act like Him.
I want to be moved by what moves Him.
Yet too often
I kick against the very things
that the Lord intends to use
to bring me to that place.
Lord,
Create in me a clean heart
renew a right spirit within me.
Father,
I ask Your forgiveness when I do not react and or respond correctly to the many different things that You allow in my life.
I'm sorry that I am so short sighted.
Forgive me Lord for being so mindful of myself
and blind to the needs of others.
Forgive me for pride and self centeredness.
Spur me on Lord
that I will do Your Will
without question.
Let us be a Bride
without a spot or wrinkle
and let it begin with me!
Blessings!
A good word. Thanks Pastor Bill
ReplyDeleteHi Marnie - not sure yet if I can or not - but if I have room in my book for your poem of this morning, may I have your permission to use part of it. Shirley
