Lord Give Me Courage,
This blog post is going to be a little bit different than I
usually write because today it is a prayer. I ask that you pray with me and for
me as I continue on this journey. I also ask that if you are at a place in your
life and you want to give more to the Lord or you want to begin in your journey
with Him, this may be your prayer.

My Gracious Heavenly Father,
I ask that you give me the courage to live
boldly for you. Living out Your Word has so many blessings and I want to be obedient
to you.

Lord, I am not always courageous, I am not always the one to
stand up for you or for what is right but I want you to change my heart. I want
to not only be a hearer of Your Word but I want to be a doer of what you ask of
me, even when it is difficult.

I know that I struggle with always giving you my whole
heart. Worshiping you with my whole heart and all my strength gets put aside
to my selfishness and “me time”. Lord please help me to overcome myself and keep
my eyes focused on Your truths.

You have given me this freedom from the bondage of my pastand yet I sometimes cling to the hurt that I have caused in my own decisions. You
have given me everything, including my freedom to live and not be bound to the
chains of sin. So Lord I ask that you help me to not only live but live freely.

I, too, desire. I thank you for constantly transforming me into the person that
you need me to be.
