Morning Prayer. #YestoGod

Lord Jesus,

I want to be a girl who says YES to you and means it with my whole heart. I want to do what you ask, when you ask and feel the joy of following you with fearless abandon. I want to be so full of joy that I want to dance (like my daughter in the living room). Lord, I know that I often focus on my circumstances, my issues, my "junk". Teach me to focus on you this day and every day. Help me stay focused on the prize, which is a glorious life in YOU! I ask, Lord, that you help mold me into a good model and example for my three children. I do not want them to fight food issues like I do, or have the self esteem and depression problems that I do. I cannot do any of this without you. I fall down every time I try. Lead me on the narrow path. Thank you for your love for me, your patience, and your unending mercy. This morning, I choose to say YES! to you. Help me hear your voice.

In Jesus Holy name,

Amen!
