Day 186

Father, 

We praise You for the fact that Your goodness and Your power aren’t contingent on our faith. You are good and powerful apart from us, and You do miracles and wonders despite us! And on top of Your power and Your goodness, You’re also merciful—You show us immense mercy when we sin. So we ask for that now, God … 

Have mercy on me, a sinner. We repent of our sins and turn to You and we ask You to make our hearts clean. We have sought You for relief instead of nearness. We’ve chased down Your blessings more than Your Person. We’ve neglected Your ways and ignored Your warning, and we repent. 

Would You once again draw near to direct our steps? Put wise people in our lives to give us godly counsel⁠—like Zechariah and Jehoiada the priest did for King Joash. Give us ears to listen. We don’t want to be foolish. 

We want to surrender our lives to You, Lord. Help us. Every moment of our day, each decision we make, we yield our will and way to Your perfect will and way. 

We love You too. Amen.
