Today’s Prayer (09/21/2018)

Lord, I know that I have not always been truthful to You. I know that many times I promised to live a better life but failed miserable time after time. How foolish I had become, while trusting in myself to get better and not put my trust in You. I am so sorry for those times that I was not heartfelt in my desire for mercy. I only wanted Your forgiveness but then still live my own life. For that, I am deeply sorry. I no longer wish to ever act that way again. It is way too important to live a life pleasing to You than anything else. Your Words make that clear in my mind and heart. And now that You have come into my life, I am so happy. I am happier than I have ever been in my life. To be on Your path is a blessing and an honor. For this reason, I wish for Your presence to always be in my life. Help me to never fall so far that You cannot get me back up again. I do not wish to sin but life in Your light. Lord, take all the foolishness from my heart now, that I might endure till the end. Even till my dying breath, may it be praises to Your holy Name. For You are worthy. I love You Lord. I trust in You with my life. My heart is Yours. For You, I will do all things. Move me and I will go. Amen.

Keep Your Promises To God

Solomon taught that these things that we promise to God, but then do the opposite, God hates. We are so foolish in this.

Ecclesiastes 5:15

Ecclesiastes 5:15 (KJV)
15 As he came forth of his mother’s womb, naked shall he return to go as he came, and shall take nothing of his labour, which he may carry away in his hand.

Ecclesiastes 5:4,5

Ecclesiastes 5:4,5 (KJV)
4 When thou vowest a vow unto God, defer not to pay it; for he hath no pleasure in fools: pay that which thou hast vowed.
5 Better is it that thou shouldest not vow, than that thou shouldest vow and not pay.
