Day 095

Father, 

We praise You for last-minute mercy! Thank You that it’s never too late to turn to You—that You always welcome repentant sinners through the open arms of Christ, and that You generously use hard circumstances to turn our hearts back to You when we’ve been calloused toward You.

Have mercy on me, a sinner. We repent of our sins and turn to You and ask You to make our hearts clean. Where we’ve given ourselves over to our desires and longings, we repent. Even good desires can take control of us in ways that are sinful, and we repent of trying to justify that to You, to ourselves, and others. Like Samson and Micah and the tribe of Dan, our disobedience has distanced our hearts from You and has made us even more vulnerable to the attacks of the enemy and the lies of the flesh.

But we praise You that Your Spirit is IN us now! Spirit, where we’ve walked in blatant rebellion and put off the things You’ve prompted us about for years, we ask for Your help. Would You grant us true repentance? Grant us strength to choose love for You over sin. Grant us the joy of obedience. And thank You that You never leave us!

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.
