A cracked pot

LORD, I ask that YOU will fill me with YOUR Love, YOUR Joy and YOUR Peace.

I am a broken and cracked pot – but may that be in YOUR best interest, in allowing the Light of YOUR Life to shine through me.

I am not strong.

I am a weak and weary one.

But, YOUR Grace is enough.

LORD, as I go through this day, please – walk with me, talk with me.

Moment by moment.

Breath by breath.

Grant me the strength I need for each task.

Grant me the focus for each moment.

I don’t want to waste energy wondering if I am adequate for today – I know in myself that I am not.

BUT GOD, YOU are . . .

My only Confidence is YOU . . .

In JESUS’ NAME I cry out . . .

: II Corinthians 4:7 – But we have this Treasure in jars of clay, to show that the surpassing Power belongs to God and not to us.

• Thank YOU GOD . . . for knowing that I am but a jar of clay. Thank YOU GOD . . . for YOUR Power that belongs to YOU, not me.

: Ephesians 3:16-19 – That according to the riches of His glory He may grant you to be strengthened with Power through His Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith – that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may have strength to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.

• Here I am, LORD, just as I am.

: Isaiah 30:15 – For thus said the Lord God, the Holy One of Israel, “In returning and rest you shall be saved; in quietness and in trust shall be your strength.” But you were unwilling.

• LORD, I pray to be willing. Always and forever.
