Teach me oh God!
Show me what it means to be patient.
Show me what it REALLY means to show unconditional love.
Something is not right, something is off. I can't put my finger on it but something has happened or is not happening. I'm not entirely sure what the IT is. God, all I can do is call out you name, especially when I feel this way. Its as if my words are to insignificant and only your name is the prayer I have to give. What is it that gives me this feeling of seperation from you. Show me what it is, let me see what I have done, that I may know how to correct my mistake.
You are God alone who reigns supreme. There is no God above you and no greater name in all the earth. You guide our steps and make our paths straight. Its not that we walk a straight path but you take our stumbling, erratic steps and order them for us. Thank you that you are the King of Peace, that your Son is the Prince of Peace and you send the Holy Spirit to deliever peace. Lord, Please send my heart and my soul peace. That I may continue to love in spite of everything that I see and all that I have heard that my heart would continue to grow in love for those who hate me. God, I have no desire to have the enemy establish a root of bitterness in my heart. You know my heart, you know the resons for every action I take. I don't want my own life, I'd just ruin it. Take it from me and use it as you please. Teach me to lay it all down: pride, bitterness, self-centeredness, lust, hate, jealousy, covetousness, everything. God clean my heart out make it yours. The things I've put inside that you don't like throw out, bring is the things you need, the things you desire for me. Teach me to be humble, patient, and surrender as you do, knowing that everything I have is from you. Never allow me to take you for granted.
