The God of my Heart

Father
We long to hear the word of commendation that you have for the widow,
But our hearts are like the rich young man we love our wealth.
Our eyes see into eternity only dimly.
But we are enthralled by the lure of this world.
Forgive us.
And change us.
Without your Spirit doing a sovereign work in our hearts we are doomed.
Grow in us a heart of grace, turned outwards, loving you more than loving our comforts;
And seeing others as people made in your image.
