the most contented--
that I fall.
Scripture even says
"Be careful if you think you stand, lest you fall."
And how little I heed that warning.
How often I go my own way
and allow my head to be turned by pretty things or kind words or even my own fleshly heart.
And how it makes me ache,
knowing that the only person who causes this is me--
me.
Oh God,
how I need You!
Every hour I need You.
Teach me to surrender my desires,
my emotions,
my plans,
my dreams,
my heart,
my intentions,
my affections--
all of me--
To only You.
You are my God--
please teach me to live that way instead of stumbling around in the darkness
groping for the path beneath my feet.
Shine a light into my heart and make me new again--
pure again.
Oh God,
I can't do it on my own,
and I need You.
Hear my prayer, Lord Jesus,
please.
