You are my everything


I'm the most imperfect perfectionist. 
I want so badly for things to be right but I'm such a broken vessel. 
God, fix all the cracks in my life.
I don't want to leak.
I want to have the power to speak words of life into the people around me. 
That's the gospel. 
Reformed and always reforming. 
My life needs changing and I can only have you do it. 
Believe me. I've tried to do it on my own but that obviously didn't work as well as I would have liked. But here I am, Lord, begging and asking you to make me a new creation. 
I'm tired of being broken. 
I know that there are things that need fixing but whether it's pride or ignorance, I fail to recognize the true problems in my life. 
So God. 
Great God. 
The one who's always been so good to me. 
Breathe life into me. 
Constantly create me into a better person. 
I just want to imitate Christ in all of my life. 
I don't want to be Michael Sterns. 
I want to be a follower of you. 
I have been crucified with you. 
It is no longer I that lives.
I'm all yours God. 
And I know that you going to use me for something because I'm not doing anything on my own. 
And I don't want to. I've done life with you and without you, and I will gladly take one day in your courts than thousands elsewhere. 
You are my everything. 
My source of strength. 
You have put a mark on my life and it's not going anywhere. 
I am yours and you are mine.
