struggles

Sometimes I almost can't believe that I'm struggling with pretty much the same things as I've been struggling with for years. Sometimes I feel like I should have learned my lesson by now, but obviously I have not.
Then I start to realize I'm struggling because I am not giving things to God. He wants and Demands that we give him everything. Everything means Everything. I can't decide that i'm going to follow Christ and only give him a little of my life. It doesn't work that way. If I'm following Christ then I'm giving him everything. Because He deserves Nothing LESS than Everything. I cannot decide I will give him my pride but keep my vanity...and so on. Kinda the same thing but it kind of states what I mean.
When I start to think of all my sins I've commited and will commit in the future it makes me feel like a horrible human. But, today I was reminded of the verse that All fall short of the Glory of God. Making me realize that yes I do fall short but because God's Son came to earth and was sinless and faultless, and bore our sins on a tree that we might one day choose him to be our Saviour! He has wiped us clean and made us like him that we might one day be with Him in Heaven to Fall at His feet to WORSHIP Him.
That just seems amazing.

Dear Heavenly Father,
Jesus I pray that you might lead me always. Jesus I pray for you to be my Saviour and to rescue me from the flame. Consume my heart like a fire. God I pray that I might be strong in you to fight these battles I fight. God I pray that all weapons that have been formed against me will not remain!
In Jesus name,
Amen!
