Transform

Heavenly Father,

I cry to you this morning. Come quickly to answer me. Listen to my pleas. May the words I bring be a fragrant aroma before you. You are God; beside you there is none other. You made all things. You sustain everything we perceive and that which is beyond my senses. I stand before you in awe. I offer up to you my life. Help me to let go of it and surrender to your will. Do not let me continue down paths that dishonor you. Teach me to love your discipline and to crave correction. Cause the light of your presence to shine brightly in my life. The world around me is cold and dark. Bring your kingdom into being in this fallen place. Let your grace and truth flow throughout this city. Transform hearts and minds to love you above all things. Comfort the hurting and afflicted. Draw all the people to yourself. May the streets resound with your praises. Make the day that every knee bows and every tongue confesses that you are Lord come soon.

In the name of the living word. Amen.
