“When you fasted and mourned…was it for me that you fasted?” Zech.7.5. ESV
Lord, you tell me plainly that selfish prayers are a waste of time but I cannot seem to escape the pull of my own gravity. You have promised to look after me and that I should look after the concerns of Your Kingdom. As far as I can tell, You have kept Your side of things even though I fudge on my side all the time. How I want to be different. But, I am not sure if my desire to change is for You or for me. It seems I need more fuel Lord if I am to reach escape velocity, break free from my self-centered life and find myself and my concerns orbiting Yours. 10/20/2009 Conversations Within ts
