Romans 7:15 "I don't really understand myself, for I want to do what is right, but I don't do it. Instead, I do what I hate."
God,
Thank you for your goodness - your patience and your mercy. Your word is so good! It is comforting even when it is correcting my failures. You ALWAYS give me hope - It makes me look at this in a different way - "Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices in with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres." (1 Corinthians 13:4-7).... You LOVE ME.
I am sorry for my daily failures and I am so thankful that you forgive me. I am overjoyed you did not give up on me and that you continue love me. Thank you. Help me to see and turn from sin. Make me an example to my children and others... May no one ever be shocked to know that I am a Christian - may they see you in me. Thank you for always loving me, even when I did not know you.
- Amen
