My Heart Breaks

God, 

My heart breaks over the condition of the church today. 

My heart breaks over the conditioned in the church today. 

My heart breaks because the church has been conditioned to remain in a condition that does not exemplify the call that you have given to us.

My heart breaks because I don’t know what to do.

My heart breaks because sometimes I think there is nothing more that can be done.

My heart breaks because at times it feels as though you have called me to an impossible task. 

My heart breaks because I realize that I am a part of the condition that needs to be broken. 

My hearts breaks because I realize that my condition is one of uncertainty in you and pride in myself. 

My heart breaks because I know The Answer but I don’t have the solution. 

My heart breaks over the myself. 

My heart breaks over the conditioned in the church today.

My heart breaks over the condition of the church today.

Lord, 

Grant me peace.

Grant me patience.

Grant me love.

Grant me grace.

Amen. Let it be.

Your Vision

Lord, show me Your vision for my life.

Countless times in my life You have had to shake me and wake me from my slumber. You were pursuing me long before I even recognized You.

Even after I was introduced to You I did not accept You as my Savior.

And even after I accepted You as my Savior and You covered me with Your mercy, love, and grace, I did not follow You.

Today, You are my Lord as well as my Savior. You are the One I seek and the One that I follow. Yet in the cloudiness of my life I struggle.

Today, open my eyes and lift the fog that surrounds me, clear my path and remove the obstacles that lie before me.

Amen, let it be.
