Dear Lord, When as a child, I did not know what it meant to be set apart. Through many hurts and bruises, lacking sound understanding of your ways, I fell many times and I still to this day suffer the consequences of not listening to You, my Father. Because of your love, your grace was sufficient for me, for You gave up your Son, Jesus Christ to be my portion; my inheritance. By your Word, I am sanctified. By his blood, I am made clean. Through his righteousness can You turn your face to me and with your Holy Spirit can I be made holy as You are holy. The more I learn about You, Father, the more I realize how far I have fallen from grace, how short I am from the standard that You have created your children to be. But because of your loving mercy, I can take my cross to mend my ways such that I follow You and therefore show my love for You. Help me with my way Help me not to stray I pray in hope that in me, You stay I ask this in Jesus Name, Amen. 12.06.23 |
