A PRAYER FOR CHANGE

I don't how many of you feel this way inside. I don't know what spiritual battle is going within you, the truth is you are not alone. We all are in this together, like it or not, believe it or not, we all have our spiritual battles to contend with. A battle of self actualization, meaning, and divine purpose.

We definitely need Divine assistance.

It takes a lot for man to realize his mistakes, but to change is really a great deal

I’ve been bad to myself and to the people around me

I know what I’m to do, but doing it is hard

I have played all my cards and got nothing

That’s why Father I’ve come to Thee for one thing

I have prayed, you’ll say not hard enough

I have fasted, you say not with my heart

I do read my bible; you say it’s always in a rush

This time around I do not want to do it alone

I can’t do it by myself; One thing I do ask of you Heavenly Father

I need your COMPASSION.

My spirit’s willing but my flesh won’t commit

I have tried and tried, but still it refuses to submit

As I am, I am torn in between two worlds

The world of the carnal and the realm of the Spirit

I try to conform my body, but it seems like the devil beats me to it

I am a different person inside and outside

I know there is a battle going on inside of me, my soul the price of victory

Lord knows and I know I don’t want to be damned

But I can’t do it by myself, as I recall I have already tried it

Father I ask for only one thing

I need your MERCY.

 Many a time I want to do good, instead I find myself doingwrong

I always want to be in church, most times I find my body still in bed

I do want to pray, but my mind is always quick to drift

I always try to stay focused on You, but my eyes are too quick to shift

I desperately need You Lord!

I do not want to be conformed to this world of vanity

Instead I want to be renewed by your word and your Spirit

Abba Father, give me Thy GRACE.
