PRAYER: Help Me To Deny My Wayward Self

Father,  

Wayward Self and I had a Difference of Opinion

And, it did not turn out too well!

I wanted to Trust You More Today

BUT 

Wayward Self wants Me to Believe as The World

That You're just Something inside My Head?!

Father, 

You have to Help Me

Wayward Self is becoming more overbearing of late

As It knows that I'm Leaning on Something Someone

Who is Steering Me away from The Sinners' Just Fate!

Father,  

I Love You!

I Trust You!

And, By Your Grace

There is Nothing and Nobody That can Change That

But That Wayward Self Is Acting Right Malicious

Pompasetting and Somehow Plotting

Something Nasty Behind My Mind's Back!

Lord, 

I Beseech You Today

To Hear Me as I Pray!

Please Remove Wayward Self Clean Out of My Way!

I Repent of My Sins

And I Am Walking As One Cleansed

BUT,  Lord Have Mercy

This Wayward Self is Pushing Me to Act 

Like Someone Straddling The Fence of Truth

And Avoiding Faith Like It's A Disease!

Lord, I am Mere Man!

You Created Me

And You Understand

For Jesus Christ Was Tested 

With Everything That Is Common To Man!

Jesus is Our Example

And You Say You Won't Leave Those Who Believe

For Satan to Trample Upon

So,  Please, Accept This Wayward Self 

That I am Placing On Your Altar

So that I will No Longer

By My Own Wayward Self

Be Made Anymore To Stumble and to Falter!

Help Me, Lord,

To Die To Self Today 

AND

Every Day 

Until That Day that Begins Forever.

AMEN
