A prayer...

Before I type this out, let me just say this prayer was originally meant to be just between me and God, but I felt somehow that someone else might benefit from it, and felt that I should post it here for you guys... If there are any people who read this. :)

Look among the nations and see; wonder and be astounded. For I am doing a work in your days that you would not believe if told. ~ Habakkuk 1:5

And I heard the voice of the Lord saying, "Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?" Then I said, "Here am I! Send me." ~ Isaiah 6:8

Father,

I hear you calling... "Send me," I prayed, but shied away when You called. I am fearful, and in my fear have been disobedient...

Now, I come asking you to take my disbelief from me... Show me how to love more... how to trust more... how to give more of me, knowing You've given all of You.

Lord, I know You want to use me. Help me to take steps of faith to follow and obey You. You don't just hand us things. You call us to step out... to practice faith so we can do Your will.

So, let me be afraid, but step out anyway, letting the fear of You be stronger than the fear of the world, of money, of life being different.

I love you, Lord!

In Jesus' name,
Amen
