A Clean Heart
One of my daily prayers is to ask God to create in me a "clean heart." Each morning I pray for forgiveness... I make mistakes, some intentional and some unintentional. I get upset, I find myself judging those I care for, taking things personally.. these are things I am not proud of, and struggle with. I pray for forgiveness and for wisdom to not repeat these patterns.
I pray for peace in my mind, body, and spirit so that I may be a light that will shine, not someone who carries darkness with her.
We all have those moments in our life where we are plundered into the darkness. We find ourselves behaving or having thoughts that we do not want to have. We all crave Joy and Peace, and bring Love to everyone we meet.
"Dear Heavenly Father,
I come to you broken. Thank you Lord for loving me just as I am. I ask you for forgiveness and help in forgiving myself. I pray for my heart, that you will create in me a clean spirit that is a magnet for Your divine love and peace. Let Your light shine through me in my walks and my talks. In Jesus name I pray, Amen."
