1 Corinthians 2:7- “No, we speak of God’s secret wisdom, a
wisdom that has been hidden and that God destined for our glory before time
began.”
Interpretation: We speak about Jesus. Some people do not
know Jesus, but before time began Jesus was destined for our glory. Our glory
is in Christ, not in ourselves. God, I need help. I have all of these heart
issues and no idea how to get a handle on them. I don’t want to be like this
much longer- let alone for the rest of my life. I ask you to change me Lord, to
change my heart so I can freely love others just as you loved me; So I can love
you with all of my heart, mind, and soul, and not care what others think. I
want to serve your Spirit living within me, but I keep fueling my flesh. I
don’t know how to put this fire out, but I know that you can. Please show your
mercy to me, I need it fresh every day. Please fill me with your Holy Spirit
and lend me your eyes, your heart, and your ears for discernment and wisdom.
Why am I so angry? Why do I refuse to let people in? Why do my relationships
with the people I’m closest to- I end up pushing away? God eradicate this, I am
tired of this anger…please send me to the root of it and lets conquer it
together. I want to be a light, not this dark selfish love-sucker. I want to be
a giver. I need your life, and your light, and please lead me to the answers I
need. Thank you God, for you are faithful. I want to be a pleasure + a joy!
…Not a burden! Please show me how to do this, please do this work in me Father.
I recognize that I have these issues and I have probably had them for a long
time and I have no idea how to handle them or get rid of them. But I know that
you have the power to make this change in me. Please hold my hand Lord. Thank
you Jesus for listening to my prayer, and always knowing the words of my heart
before they even leave my mouth. Amen.
Application: Confess to Caitie what is on my heart, ask for
forgiveness, and continue on.
