Lord, I'm Yours. Whatever the cost may be, may Your will be done in my life. I realize I"m not here on earth to do my own thing, or to seek my own fulfillment or my own glory. I'm not here to indulge my desires, to increase my possessions, to impress people, to be popular, to prove I'm somebody important, or to promote myself. I'm not here even to be relevant or successful by human standards. I'm here to please You.
All that I am and all that I have I give to You.
I give You any rebellion in me, that resists doing Your will. I give You my pride and self dependence, that tell me I can do Your will in my own power if I try hard enough. I give You my fears, that tell me I'll never be able to do Your will in some areas of life. I consent to let You energize me... to create within me, moment by moment both the desire and the power to do Your will.
I give You my body and each of its members... my entire inner being: my mind, my emotional life, my will... my loved ones... my marriage or hopes for marriage...my abilities and gifts...my strengths and weaknesses....my health...my status (high or low)... my possessions... my past, my present and my future...when and how I'll go Home.
I'm here to love You, to obey You, to glorify You. O my beloved, may I be a joy to You!
31 Days of Praise... Ruth Meyers.
