prayer of dependence

Lord Jesus,

I present my life to you this morning. You are aware of the struggles that i face daily, hourly, moment by moment. There is no survival outside the shadow of your grace. i confess my inability to be self suffecient. i recognize that you know me better than i know myself. you understand the terror of the nights and the arrows of my days. reign in me today. even as i paint the house, give me open ears to hear your voice. Lord, i lift my sons up to You. Lord, i am so barren in wisdom and you are plentiful. Lord, You know i love them and that i need an ocean of your love to be the kind of dad that i need to be. i pray for energy and encouragement today.
