Heart of hearts

You have looked upon Your servant's lowliness, seen him for what he really is, and then you chose to draw him to the covenant love at the cross of Jesus - I have been delivered from all my sin.
Thus, I became a servant of this Gospel by Your free gift of grace at work through the Power of the One who raised Jesus from the place of the dead. You spoke of a difficult Road to me then, and now You give me grace on it as I have begun to tread all the places of life grasping Your hand along the way.
I am not my own to live as I wish. Now by the out-pouring of Your life, You have graciously freed me from my choices, and so You have continued to love me despite my inconstant and wavering devotion. God of grace and truth, be glorified despite my weak efforts and ignorant choices! Protect me by the power of Your Name and so let me live, as many through the course of History, to raise up the knowledge of Christ in this world!
May my heart be always bound by vision of Jesus to the Everlasting Heart of hearts!
