Do not now be stiff-necked, but yield yourselves to the Lord and come to his sanctuary.
2 Chronicles 30:8
Yield
Let me yield myself to you Lord.
Take my whole being – every inch of me – my heart, my hands, my breath, my mind, my will – my every cell
Strange to give back to you the gifts You’ve given me.
Yield
May others see You in me.
Less of me, more of You.
Yield
You know me better than I know myself, so why do I hesitate?
Take me now before my ego snatches my intention and tosses me back into the chaotic world.
Every day I approach Your throne and yield.
Daily, minute by minute – I am Yours.
Yield
What a lovely word and ideal way to live.
Like the soft, pliable clay in the skilled artist hands, shape my life as You design, Lord.
Knead my heart, Lord, to stretch and grow with the yeast from heaven.
I rest in Your strong grip.
Yield
Colleen, I think yielding is difficult for us all. We will both be praying this, this week.
This will be my prayer this week. Yielding is not one of my strong suits!! Thanks and God bless!
Thanks everyone for your kind comments. I find my ego gets in the way so much in my relationships both with others and with God.
Jeanie, the one that I liked is, “I rest in Your strong grip.” I need that right now. Thanks.
“Take me now before my ego snatches my intention and tosses me back into the chaotic world.” I love this, Jean. Oh, I see Laura quoted the same line–well, you hit the bulls’ eye today!
Love,
Jen
I love this: “Take me now before my ego snatches my intention and tosses me back into the chaotic world.”
“Knead my heart, Lord.”
This really spoke to me today, Jeanie!
