As for me, I will call upon God, And the Lord shall save me.

Evening and morning and at noon I will pray, and cry aloud,

And He shall hear my voice.

Psalm 55:16-17

Just as I am

Holding nothing back

Myself to give

It is all I have

Nothing between us

Not anything to fear

To trust and lean

Upon God to depend

The things I have

I give to Him.

There is much to do

Many places to go

But not without my Lord

My Saviour, my All in All

To Him be the glory

I must surrender all.

There is no other way —

He cannot guide

What He does not have

So all I have I give

Because He loved me

Enough to die and give of Himself

And nothing I could ever do, or give or say

Could be enough to pay back

His sacrifice for me

Except to give myself to Him.

Blessing and glory, power and honor

Be unto the Lord, God Almighty!

Amen.

This is my prayer. That I would give of myself unto God, and God alone. Each and every day. From the moment I awake, to the moment I lay my head on the pillow at night.

Truly, He cannot guide what He does not have. And if I am not abiding in Him daily, then I cannot be guided by His Spirit and His wisdom.

This is as simple as it gets. Just as I am, holding nothing back, my heart I give to You, Jesus.

 

From My Heart to Yours,
Marcie 🙂
