Well friends, below I've written a prayer which was born out of my utter depravity and God's grace and power in my life. I hope it will bless you.
O Eternal God,
Here am I.
A gypsy,
a pilgrim.
A thief
hidden
in the heart of a Redeemer.
Conflicted thoughts,
empty hands.
Battle scars,
undone plans.
I am a misfit
and I give myself to You.
Broken,
contrite.
I am a fool.
Beyond logic,
reason.
Ignorant,
out of season.
Please,
distance me
from my lingering pride.
O, Father, in Christ
consume me.
Let Your Spirit
bloom in me.
You are the Fire.
I AM
ashes without you.
You are the Light.
I AM
withered without you.
In fear
trembling…
Here am I.
Christ
in me.
The hope of glory.
You’re my everything.
Amen.
Here am I.

You’re my everything.
Amen.
