I Give Myself

Let me hear of your unfailing love each morning,
    for I am trusting you.
Show me where to walk,
    for I give myself to you.

—Psalm 143:8 (NLT)

Heavenly Father,

Show me where to walk, for I give myself to You this day.

Too often, I have rushed into the new day that You have set before me—eagerly pursuing my own plans and ideas—without first spending time with You.

Help me not to forget how critical it is that I open Your Word—the Bible—and allow You to speak to me, by Your Holy Spirit, through the Truth that I find there.

As I read and study my Bible each morning, help me to hear of Your unfailing loving-kindness for me and teach me of the goodness of Your ways—so that I will trust You more.

As I come before You in prayer, help me submit my will to Yours alone and show me where to walk, so that I might be just where You want me to be—that place where You can continue to provide for me, protect me, and most of all, use me.

Show me where to walk, for I give myself to You this day.

In the name of Jesus, Amen.
