God, increase my desire for You.
may i desire You more than the things of the world
increase my hunger for You
give me grace to seek You.
may i desire You more than girl time, fashion chat, and mommy talk
God give me nothing of those, and more of You.
help me separate from worldly desires, and to desire only You.
take away my desire for a mate, for children, for comfort,
and increase my desire for Your Kingdom to come.
fan the flames in my heart, oh God
crush me to a billion pieces if it glorifies you.
forgive me for wanting good things, and not the best
for my good things fall so short of Your best
--and not Your best for me, but Your best for Your glory!!
keep me in Your way, oh God
put my feet on the path of holiness and separation from the world
that my light be muddied by the darkness around me,
but shine brightly and truely before all men
take compromise from my soul
take the care for friendship and the fear of man from me
forgive me for my unfaithfulness
forgive me for my lack of fervor
stir me up oh God
may Your Spirit combust me
and Your fire shine forth as i become nothing
oh God, have mercy on me.....
