A prayer I wrote on my myspace

I wrote this when I was 19 years old. July 26, 2006. Sanctification is awesome. I can be honest a say the Lord has grown me and wrecked me many times since I wrote this.

Dear Lord,

Why am I such an Idiot? Why is it when I can see what is right I purposely do the opposite? Lord I am not worthy for the name of being called a “christian”. I am so easily pleased with worldly things when what you offer is worth so much more! Lord I give it all up….I give it all up to you…Please forgive me for being such a fool….I take your Grace and Mercy for granted…..Yes I know you will forgive me…..Yes i know you sent your son to shed his blood on the cross for me……But i shouldnt take for granted what you gave me…..I need to live for you….with out you im nothing….Im desprite for you lord……I want to be on fire….and not the temporary fire that you get for like a week after missions trips….i want people to say….I see Christ in him….I want people to say…he is different….I want people to say….He loves the Lord with all his heart….Lord consume me…..Im done living for my flesh….I want to live for you….today is the first day of the rest of my life…..Im ready to start anew!!!!

Your son, Frank
