Living Sacrifice:

     Lord Jesus, I stand before you and agree that my life is to be for you and for your purposes, whatever that means.

    
     I have seen the Love that went to The Cross.  I have seen the Love that rose again and is preparing a Place.  I have seen the Love that initiates each day and each hour.


     So desperately I need you, oh Lord.


     Teach me to wait.
     Teach me to forgive.
     Teach me to serve.
     Teach me to sing.
     Teach me to go.
     Teach me to give sacrificially.
     Teach me to speak.


     I tend to cling to the familiar and the comfortable, but as I stand before you now, by faith, I relinquish that futile right.
 

     Lord Jesus, do whatever must be done in the deepest places of my heart, in order to make me like you.
