I Chronicles 17: 16 ... 27
Who am I, O Lord God, and what is my family, that You have brought me this far? ... You speak as though I were someone very great, O Lord God! What more can I say to You ...? You know what Your servant is really like ... O Lord, there is no one like You ...!
O my Father God, You have shown me, in this prayer, a little of why You call David, "A man after My own heart"! (Acts 13:22, quoting from I Samuel 13:14)
May You also grant to me the same humble heart I see in David here, the same that Jesus demonstrated. May I continually display in my attitudes the true understanding that I am only dust, and You have honored me in seeing and knowing me, drawing me out of the mire, placing my feet securely on the Rock, causing me to be born into Your own Royal family, cleansing and healing me, and working in me both to will and to do Your good pleasure; to form in me, little by little, day by day, the very image, the character of Your Son, my Lord and King. And it is You Who as done it all! All honor and glory to You alone, my God!
Even so, come, Lord Jesus!
