Father,

You know our pain, You have felt our ache, and You entered in. We praise You for Your compassion and patience with us. It’s scandalous that a Holy God would treat us the way You do. You pour out kindness on us in ways we could never earn or repay. Your heart is SO KIND.

Have mercy on me, a sinner. A lot of these woes sound familiar, God. Sometimes it feels like Amos is talking directly to US. We recognize ourselves in these warnings, because we’ve been concerned for no one but ourselves, we’ve taken credit for our gains, and we’ve robbed You of the praise You deserve.

And at the same time, we want to be spared the kind of disaster that often prompts us to repent. So we’re laying our hearts out before You, God. You can fix them. We can’t. And we want You to. Please do what only You can do. Uproot the lies we’ve believed and clung to and plant the truth instead.

We surrender our lives to You, Lord—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.
