TURNING THE ABOVE DAY’S VERSES INTO A PRAYER
Father, how grateful I am that iniquity in my life, sin in my life, makes me uncomfortable. Thank You for being gracious, merciful and slow to anger, even when you are chiding me, when You are disciplining me, for I know that You will not be angry at me forever. In fact, Your chiding causes me to cry out to You, I acknowledge that Your silence lasts only as long as my lack of submitting to You. While I sometimes feel like I may die, because of the lack of intimacy my sin has caused between You and I, I know that You are my rock. Praise You Lord…
