Search Me O God

Psalm 139: 23-24

Search me, O God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. Point out anything in me that offends You, and lead me along the path of everlasting life.

O my dear Father, my Abba Dad, please search my heart and my attitudes and point out to me those things there that offend You because they are not surrendered to Your will and Your ways. Show them to me so I can confess and forsake them, and You will forgive, cleanse and heal me. 

Give me Your wisdom, discernment and strength to turn from my idols--anything that acts as a wall between me and You--and turn to You, to seek Your face. I want to know You better and love You more every day. I want Your light to shine upon me, in me, and through me to others, that they will be drawn toward You by my life. 

Hide me in the cleft of the Rock and cover me with Your hand, so that others seeing me will not see my flesh, but the beauty of Your Spirit, and be attracted to You.

Even so, come, Lord Jesus!
