Morning Moment of Prayer...
Dear Lord Jesus...I start this day surrendered. Before I speak another word, think another thought, or take the next step forward, I ask that You be Lord of it all. Especially my blind spots, Lord. Please open my eyes to my failings and faltering, my selfishness and self-will. I can’t see these areas without your help, especially with my family. I desire to see the areas that need Your healing touch, and I make myself available for You to speak into my life. I am Yours. In the Name of the One and Only, Lord Jesus. Amen!
…Anyone who intends to come with me has to let me lead. You’re not in the driver’s seat; I am. Don’t run from suffering; embrace it. Follow me and I’ll show you how. Self-help is no help at all. Self-sacrifice is the way, my way, to finding yourself, your true self.
Matthew 16:24-26
