A Remarkable Prayer

Last night when I am about to sleep, I am thinking of what gift I will ask from God on my birthday. I am pondering and searching my heart what will I ask Him in prayer. Yes, I have one material gift I want to receive but I am planning to buy it for myself and that is a guitar. I want to learn playing guitar in preparation for a higher calling. Aside from studying His Word, I also want to play praises and worships to Him while singing. If He will bless me with this talent, I want to use it for His glory so that in His perfect timing on sending me wherever He wants then I can use this talent on touching lives aside from sharing the Gospel. However, my great desire is to be the woman He wants me to be. It is my prayer to be a woman after His own heart. To live a life that is accordance to His will. On my devotion, I have read this remarkable prayer of a man who wants to offer his whole life to God. I was moved with this prayer because this noble man's prayer is also my prayer, my heart's desire. May I also be used and touch hundreds of lives as this man was after praying this prayer.


"Lord, here I am, I am Yours. The rest of my life, whatever You want me to do, if You will show me and convince me what You want, I will do it. The attitudes You want me to have, I will have. As I study and read Your Word, I will try to carry out what You tell me to do, and think the way You tell me to think. Here I am, Lord; do with my life as You want."
