Prayer/Devotional 1

[Maryna S.]

July 16, 2018 ----- Recently, I have been going through tough times spiritually. I've been falling into sin, which would make me feel embarrassed to come before God. Even though I know that works won't save me, I tried getting better before coming to God and seeking His mercy, grace, and forgiveness. This would make me fall deeper into sin since I am weak without God. All I know how to do is please the flesh. Instead of running to my merciful savior, I ran to my miserable self trying to justify my wrong with "good deeds". I often forget how great a price was paid for me and that I had nothing to offer God, but He loved me first. I am nothing more than a sinner, but my God is powerful and rich in mercies beyond all measure and comprehension, My God is love. He is able to save the worst of sinners like me. Lord help my weakness, unbelief, pride, selfishness, change my heart and cleanse me daily. Plant me firm in your truth, so that by the Holy Spirit and by your grace I might bring fruit, serve you and others.
