Surrender to God

God, I surrender my life to You. You can have it all—every thought, action, behavior, and desire. I want You to be glorified through me. So here I am, Lord. Take me, use me, send me, change me, clean me, transform me, love me, and love others through me. Take all that I am, and use it for Your glory. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Take away my pain

Father God, thank You for deeply caring about who I am. I’m so grateful that, one day, You will take away all the pain and hardship I’ve experienced. But until that day comes, I will trust You and cling to You. I will place my hope in You. I will bring You my pain, and allow You to comfort me. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Love sincerely

God, please help me to listen to You and to others. Show me how to love sincerely and practically. Change the way I approach people by replacing my anger and frustration with grace, empathy, and understanding. Fill me with Your peace and love—so that my attitude and actions reflect Your character. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Worthy of all our praise

God, You are worthy of all my praise, and You created me to praise You! So please show me how to worship You in all that I do. When people look back on my life, I want them to give You glory. So please teach me how to make my life an act of worship. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

My Friends

God, thank You that I don’t have to go through life alone. You are always with me, and You've put people in my life to help me. I’m grateful You created us to depend on each other and share our life experiences. Community is Your design, and I don't want to take it for granted. Help me to love and serve my friends well. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

When tempted

God, thank You for always providing a way out of temptation. Because I know Your Son, sin doesn’t have control over my life. But because the world isn’t fully restored yet, I still find myself tempted. Your Word says that You will be with me. Thank You! Please give me the courage to say “no” to the things that could harm me. I want to faithfully follow You at all times. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
