Cold

Heavenly Father,

My heart is cold, and my thoughts are muddied. I don’t even want to reach out to you this morning. I need you to reach out to me. I know that I am no less your son this morning than I am when I spring from bed eager to seek your face. I ask you to pray for me this morning with words too wonderful for human lips. Clear my mind and ignite my heart. Forgive me for my lack of affection for you. Meet with me this morning. Open my heart to your spirit. Overcome the resistance I feel today. Lord, I believe, help my unbelief. Don’t let me tarry long in this state but restore to me the joy of being in your presence. Banish everything within me that does not call you Lord.

In the name of my Lord and savior. Amen.
