I want you to show love, not offer sacrifices. I want you to know Me more than I want burnt offerings. But like Adam, you broke My covenant and betrayed My trust.
Hosea 6:6-7
Good Morning Yahweh,
You are so faithful and wonderful to me. You wake me every morning with a new page of my life. You help me to continue my story or You show me when I’m starting a new chapter. You are my constant companion and guide. I could never live the fullness of this life without You.
You ask so little of me, Father. You ask me to love, not only You, but all those around me. I try to make it so much more difficult, I try to set rules as to how I should love, who I should love and when I should love. You don’t want that, You just want me to love.
You created me to be in a relationship with You. I break Your trust every time I try and do things on my own. Every time I say I’ll do it my way. Oh Father, my heart breaks to think I have hurt You like that. I am so sorry.
To be in a relationship with You is my hearts desire. You fill all the empty spots and give me a reason to live and an anticipation of what’s to come.
Help me to no longer set my rules about loving. Break down the walls I have constructed in my life that keep You out. Help me to focus on one thing today: being with You in all I do.
Amen
