england, my heart beats for you.

God, you are my life, my song, my helper. I want my life to reflect your glory and to draw many to you. I will always fail without you. God, I am so lost without you! I want you to have the reigns and to have control of me-every part of me! I am only alive in you and because of you.  Remind me of why I need you. God, England is just around the corner...about a month and a half away! Help me to trust you to provide for me. Help me to lean not on my own understanding. "Father, break my heart for what breaks yours. Give me open hands and open doors." Pave the way before me. Blaze the trail I will be moving along. God, open my eyes to the needs that need to be met spiritually, emotionally, and physically. You have give me a heart that beats Eng-land...Eng-land.
Lord prepare me for what is to come. You have grown me in ways this semester that I believe you will use while in England. You have given me opportunities for boldness-many opportunities. God, give me a burning passion for the lost souls there in England. They need life from the Fountain just as much as anyone! I can do great things only through your great love for me and for the nations. Without it I am nothing.
Lord, be my song and my salvation. I put my hope in you alone, for you are the One who saves. I long to know your heart and to walk with you all the days of my life. Romance me, remind me of your good works and the incredible, profoundly wonderful things you have done for me to capture my gaze and my heart. I want to love you, my Creator, more than I love your created things. Draw me in and smile upon me as I seek you morning and night. I give myself again to you now. Take me and do your will in and through me as you please. This life is all about you and your glory, not my own. You are fully worthy and deserving of praise and worship from me.
May the words of my mouth and the mediations of my heart be pleasing to you, O God. Forgive me for constantly running away and finding satisfaction in much less worthy things. You are all that I need!
