"I will be true, I will obey, I will be poured out just for you.."
"Search me, know me, try me and see, every worthless affection hidden in me. All I'm asking for, is that you'd cleanse me Lord. Create in me a heart that's clean, conquer the power of secret shame. Come wash away the guilty stain of all my sin."
Realized this morning that I do not have enough revelation of the cross in my daily life. For myself, it was like I made this one time decision to follow Jesus, but that His love, mercy, and forgiveness ended there. I have always thought I am a christian..I should have known better every tiem i've sinned...beating myself up, wallowing in my sin...when salvation is every day...salvation is always with you. I am asking the Lord to help make the cross a reality to me everyday...His mercies and grace are new every morning...I can say this, but is it downloaded in my heart? Not entirely...
Lord, help me receive your love, forgiveness, and mercy so that I may walk in more freedom and confidence in who you are, who I am in you. Thank you for sending your son, make the cross central to my heart, that I may breathe you in and breathe you out. THank you for your loving kindness that leads me to repetance. You are a good God, this is true. I love you God..but more importantly you love me! Come in and keep cleaning me out, and may I respond with complete gratitude! In Jesus name, amen.
