For >this to happen, we must open our heart to the will of God. There are >no greater words God wants to hear than "teach me to do your will." >That is what it means for him to be God, to have control over our >life and our will. > >MY PRAYER... >Almighty God, I want you to truly be God in my life. I renounce any >attempt on my part to try to manipulate or use your grace and >kindness for my benefit. I submit my will to yours. But Holy Father, >I confess that I struggle at times with my own selfish and evil >desires that lead me astray. Please forgive me when my heart is cold >and my ears are deaf to your will. Please, take control of my life >today. Through Jesus my Lord, I ask you to assert your will as God >in my life. Amen. > >----------- > >Heartlight Daily devotional and prayer are written by Phil Ware of >HEARTLIGHT Magazine, on the web at: ><http://www.crosswalkmail.com/jjcskds_zmvafn.html>http://www.heartlight.org >----------- >The NIV Daily Verse is provided by ><http://www.crosswalkmail.com/tvljecu_zmvafn.html>http://www.zondervan.com > >If you enjoyed this newsletter, forward it on to a friend. > >* Copyright 2005 Salem Web Network and its Content Providers. >All rights reserved. > > > ~~~~ Alan & Ruth Anne Wheeler <da2ofus@...> Proud owners of the following lists: Ladies Fellowship, LF Newsletter, Bread of Life, Christian Drummer and swgCares at: <www.associate.com> The LORD your God in your midst, The Mighty One, will save; He will rejoice over you with gladness, He will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing. ~ Zephaniah 3:17 (NKJV)
