I was naughty... ♥

Dear Lord, 

I am sorry to admit that today after praying to surrender my day to you that I blatantly ignored your voice and did what I wanted. You asked me not to purchase that Starbucks hot chocolate and I didn't feel right spending the money... Yet I bought it because I didn't want my coffee date to sit their with her drink feeling awkward :(.

You asked me to not buy that scoop of THRIFTY'S chocolate brownie ice cream. Yet, I did. And felt a bit of a tummy ache afterwards :(. You asked me not to waste my gas and drive all the way to Laguna Beach for Tacos at TACO LOCO. Yet, I did. And when me and the girls arrived it was closed! I guess they are only open until 2 a.m on weekends. You are so patient with me and I am so impulsive at times.

Thank you for bringing my mother to church again tonight. She really enjoyed the Easter service. Thank you for protecting me from drunk drivers and any other danger I could have gotten into tonight driving around Laguna and Newport beach. Thank you for the 5 dollars I found and used to buy my girls each a warm chocolate croissant. Thank you for sacrificing your life Jesus. That I could call myself a child of God and be grafted into the inheritances once only promised to the jews. Thank you Lord for breaking the rules and showing us that loving you is about a RELATIONSHIP not a set of rules to follow and obey. Thank you for your grace in which I am capable of having my faith. 

Thank you for loving me despite my stupidity and who I am. I am so, so sorry for ignoring your quiet whispers today. I want to be obedient Father. Have mercy on your silly and often dumb child. She still struggles with pleasing man above God :(. Not proud Father. But that is the honest truth. 

Transform me GOD. I know I can be more but I first need more of YOU in me.

I love you so much. Your an amazing savior. None is greater than you...None.

[♥] 1Corinthians 4:5

1Corinthians 4:5 "Therefore judge nothing before the appointed time; wait till the Lord comes. He will bring to light what is hidden in darkness and will expose the motives of men's hearts. At that time each will receive his praise from God."

Oh dear God. Please give me your power so I may live this out fully. 

This verse that speaks boldly to judgment is quite a convicting one dear bloggies. I think of Christ washing the disciples feet in a complete display of humility and I am reminded that Judas, the one who would soon after hand betray Jesus and deliver him to His enemies, was one of those disciples whose feet Jesus washed. He could have taken that time to stop at Judas and tell everyone how wicked the heart of this disciple was and rebuke him (rightly so) of his deceit and pride. No. That is not the God I serve. Jesus took the feet of Judas and washed them clean along with the other disciples. He made Himself so low on this earth. Born in rags and died in rags. Beaten until his skin was gone on his back, dragged, thorns driven into his scalp, nails driven into his WRISTS.

I know we often hear of hands but the crucifixion was a tradition of killing someone in which they were sure to die in humility. They would actually pierce through the wrists, which we all know, is where many important veins are and many have commited suicide this way.

This same God asks me not to judge. I know I fall short in this area and I can only pray to have the same grace that brings me to humility and the richness of the humble life.

In the Corinthian church believers were becoming 1Cor 3:4 worldly. They had began to break in factitious circles claiming who they followed. Some boasted in Apollos, some in Paul some in Cephas. But their boasting came purely from the focus of MAN. It is relevant today within church as well. Presbyterian, Baptist, Pentecostal, Lutheran... These are a lot of the titles that believers hold in their head forgetting that 1Corinthians 3:23 "[...] you are of Christ, and Christ is of God."

I know. Kind of shatters that attachment you may have to YOUR pastor, YOUR church and YOUR denomination. Even further in the way YOU study the bible, the commentary YOU READ, the translation that everyone in Your congregation uses. The truth is the scripture is what we should all be living in not our church. That is only the place that we gather together to praise God as a body. We are the church. Me sitting here at my computer reading my bible and writing my thought THIS is Church. Our bodies are the temples that God should dwell not only at our home Church. I know we can distance ourselves from God easily but this is important to remember because otherwise where does our faith really rest?

God isn't a denomination. He is GOD almighty. He will not judge based on our Church of attendance on earth He will look directly at our hearts. He doesn't look upon any part of the bride and say the feet are best or the hands or the face. He looks at us children of His kingdom equally favoring none more than the other. And this is what He is addressing in His word. How can we say we are the body of Christ when we turn our noses or faces away from our brothers and sisters gathering in another city or judge the brother next to us with a tattoo of Scripture on his arm or the sister next to us who is not convicted in the ways that Christ is convicting us? The new covenant, the new promise this NEW TESTAMENT is the reason we are able to call God our King. Remember that the Old Testament, the old covenant and the OLD PROMISE was the one that God established to point us to Him. To Christ. The messiah who would come. But instead, the Jews of those days became religious. They looked only at the outside. They did not love. They did not praise God. They had forgotten who God was and turned Him into a reason to judge. A reason to hate and treat others poorly. This covenant was one they broke because their hearts were far from God. And today we live by the grace of God in FAITH not in the LAW.

We are a divided body today. I see in on TV. I witness it in community. And I understand that it is the result of me looking at me.Thankfully grace is covering us today as it has all along. I just exhort you, along with myself, to make sure that our boasting is strictly in the LORD because when we look at ourselves we see others in light of ourselves and judgment, no matter how minor, shall always be waiting to be rendered when we are seeing through those fleshy eyes. 

I am a child of GOD. (This is excluding the cults that claim to know Jesus but deny everything He claimed he was) I have no reason to judge my brother of faith. God has called me in His love and mercy and I am to love Him fully and lean completely on Him. Not on who my pastor is or what church I am going to. The spirit is the one who guides us not ourselves. I love this verse simply because it is talking directly to me in so many ways. 

I pray we would like Paul be children of God and nothing more. Realizing just how much we have gained in this supernatural adoption and just how much we do not by any comprehensible means deserve it. I pray for the Lord to break me of my attachments to the things and people of this world. I know that I am weak GOD still you love me and you use me. Thank you so much for that. May the women and men who claim to know you be lovers of the TRUTH and 1Corinthians 4:6 [...] not go beyond what is written." We are yours. 

1Corinthians 4:7 "For who makes you different from anyone else? What do you have that you did not receive? And if you did receive it, why do you boast as though you did not?"

♥ CheChe ♥

P.S. Sorry for the late night I make no sense really posts these last two days. I haven't had much time during the day to write. I have a wedding I get to attend tomorrow at 3 and am soooo excited :). I pray God blesses you no matter how much you doubt He can. I pray that if you don't know Jesus you would encounter Him. I pray for an experience like no other and for Christ, God, The messiah to show you REAL LOVE. Once you have tasted Christ life becomes full and beautiful. I love you God.

Find this on FACEBOOK PLEASE! ♥

I am extremely exhausted.
Took Spin Class today and Tuesday and boy do I feel the consequences, much needed but consequences nonetheless, of those two decisions. 

I am very thankful to propose the question of you taking the time to like the I AM FREE page on facebook. It is a page that a dear sister of mine started running and promotes the freedom from the bondage of sin, mainly EATING DISORDERS, through Christs ultimate peace and comfort. 

This is the first public display of my testimony and although it may be small to some I am so blessed to know that GOD is using my life to bring glory to Him. If you click "LIKE" on the page and then scroll down you will hit the link to my testimony posted on the SILENT NO MORE website I believe. 

God is really pouring out His spirit in great and unfathomable ways to reach the hurting and lost. I know we all want to be used so continue to encourage, exhort and correct each other in the loving way Jesus Christ would have you amongst your family, church family, friends, co-workers and neighbors. He is begging to use us but we must FIRST be willing right?

Probably taking a bit of a break until Saturday or Sunday. I'm on PAID TIME OFF until Tuesday at work so I am going to do my best to rest and relax :). 

PRAYER REQUEST:

1) time God wants me to leave work for Africa which has a possible 6week-2month window.

2) peace over financial situation and just overall surrender of finances to him "render to Caesar what is Caesars right?

3) a genuine love for the lost and burden to pray for the unsaved and saved

4) TO BE SET FREE MORE EACH DAY IN HIM!

love you ladies

Refreshed... ♥

Walk in the awareness of the HOLY SPIRIT that indwells you ladies. This is our calling as Leaders in Christ in our workplaces, in our ministry, as wives, as children of the King.

Acts 3:1-11 "1.Now Peter and John went up together into the temple at the hour of prayer, [being] the ninth [hour].2.And a certain man lame from his mother's womb was carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple which is called Beautiful, to ask alms of them that entered into the temple;3.Who seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple asked an alms.4.And Peter, fastening his eyes upon him with John, said, Look on us.5.And he gave heed unto them, expecting to receive something of them.6Then Peter said, Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk.7And he took him by the right hand, and lifted [him] up: and immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength.8And he leaping up stood, and walked, and entered with them into the temple, walking, and leaping, and praising God.9And all the people saw him walking and praising God:10And they knew that it was he which sat for alms at the Beautiful gate of the temple: and they were filled with wonder and amazement at that which had happened unto him.11 And as the lame man which was healed held Peter and John, all the people ran together unto them in the porch that is called Solomon's, greatly wondering.

This scene is one we as believers are all extremely familiar with. Something I had never really recognized that was touched on this weekend at the conference was that God was with these two men BEFORE this miracle. In fact, Peter and John were heading into the temple for prayer themselves. But something that we as believers we need to take heed to when reading this, I myself in particular, is that GOD did not have them go to CHURCH and get all fired up then use them to heal. Because these men had been walking with Jesus, not just physically, but in communion with Him and in devotion to Him with their lives. He used them because of their willingness in their self-sacrificial offering :)! How blessed are we to receive such a gift.

Romans 12: 1-2 speaks of us presenting ourselves as a HOLY SACRIFICE. In the Old Testament sacrifices were slaughtered animals and presented as burnt offerings and this was the holy sacrifice that purified all sins of the sinner. THE ATONEMENT. But here in Romans we are asked to present ourselves as the burnt offering. Obviously we aren't crazy and burning ourselves in order to be those holy sacrifices. But God is calling us to DIE... TO DIE to ourselves for HIM. He cannot use us with the flesh still being fed. IT MUST BE KILLED. He asks us to present ourselves so that HE CAN FILL US. SO THAT HE CAN BE SEEN IN US. So THAT Glory may be given to HIm and Him.

These men had presented themselves as sacrifices and as Romans 12:2 states the transformation of their minds had begun to take place because of that sacrifice. They were in tune with what God was asking because they OBEYED Him above the flesh and His voice in turn only became amplified. They heard Him say stop and speak to this beggar. They heard Him speak the words of power to their hearts as they commanded the beggar to stand. They KNEW their Kings voice because they had given themselves to HIM. They didn't think like themselves. They thought in CHRIST. At the moment of this healing I do believe they were seeing through Gods eyes and desires for this man. Many beggars existed yet because they had God at the front of their minds they knew what God was calling them to do and they knew who God was calling them to witness to. TO glorify the God of the universe to.




I love you all. Thanks to those who prayed. This weekend was amazing and this doesn't even touch the surface of all that GOD ministered to me. I love you guys so much. Keep surrendering and showing the LOVE of God in your blogs because it is such an encouragement and truly puts a smile on my heart.

some of my crazy sisters and me this weekend ♥

Prayer ♥

Dear Lord,


You know me by name. You knit me before the span of time I live in existed. You created me for a magnificent and perfect life and ministry. I pray to count it all as joy. To surrender myself completely at your throne. To be filled with your spirit so that you might be revealed more and more to those around me. I pray God for more of your love to enter my heart. I pray for forgiveness Lord because I continually fall short. I pray Lord to pray more and to take heed to your calling and pick up my cross each and every moment that I am awake and functioning on this planet. I pray for my unsaved family Lord to come to know you as sovereign and King. I pray for a flame of your POWER to be ignited within my soul and for an awakening like no other to take place within me that others may not RECOGNIZE me as Chetreanna but as a woman who has encountered the living God.

Father break me of my Pride.
Give me more humility.
Show me and reveal to me what a meek spirit truly looks like.
Show me how to be the gentle woman you have called me to be.
Control me, Use me, Fulfill in me the desires you have given to me.
Shake me free of the cage I have become accustomed to that I may fly on your wings in your GLory.
Set my heart aflame my God.
Show me who I am in You.
Let me be overwhelmed with your forgiveness that I could learn to truly walk in forgiveness amongst mankind.
Less of me Dear God. 
Less of me PLEASE Dear Father.
I am sick God. I am sick of sin. I am sick of the lack of sensitivity I have spiritually. Make me Bold. Give me passion for your name. TRANSFORM me God.




I love you so much Jesus. You have done so many great things for me and I just wanted to let you know that I am yours and I am sorry for not always walking as YOUR CHILD. Thank you for loving me first. Thank you for rescuing me from the Hell I chose. Thank you for loving me when I spat on your face, laughed at you, mocked you and denied your NAME. Father God infiltrate this world and show your face to those suffering across the globe. You know them all by name God. May they know your name as well.



I. Am. In. Love. With. You.




love,

Dear...

Lord, I ask of you... Consume me my King.

I pray for your sorrow dear Lord...

For your grief of the lost and the walking dead...

I need more of you my God...

Lord, I ask of you... CONSUME me my King.

I pray for your humility dear Lord...

For your desire to see all in your KINGDOM.

I am so in need of your Holy Spirit.

Empower me Christ. I cannot do this on my own.

Apart from you I lust, I envy, I COVET, I disregard, I neglect

the things of you and fill myself with the things of this WORLD.

Lord Jesus I lie. Lord JESUS I hold grudges!!!

LORD JESUS WHO AM I TO BE YOUR DAUGHTER?
TO BE YOUR WIFE...TO BE YOUR BODY?

Unworthy my Love...

Unworthy is all I am.

Oh Father in heaven who knows me by name... Forgive me of my trespasses...

Teach me to forgive those who have trespassed against me.

Teach me to seek forgiveness from those I have wronged...
And deliver the LOVE you have for this world into my heart.

FATHER WORK ANEW IN MY LIFE, IN MY SOUL!

I ask, I beg, I SCREAM LORD CONSUME ME!!!

MAY I BE BROKEN COMPLETELY to be filled by you WHOLE!

I need you... I need YOU... 

Humble me Father so I may be used.

I see you in my life but I want more of you in ME!!

I am a sinner. I have been saved by your grace. Teach me the meaning of this grace that I now walk in. Teach me to love and to bow before you in this grace daily/hourly. I am so far from the woman I can see. God you know my heart so TRANSFORM me...

I have been crying out to God lately. I haven't known what I can do other than pray, get in His word and be filled with fellowship in studies and His teachings. I know that many would think that I am perfectly fine where I am but the LORD wants me to go deeper with Him. I know it because I hear Him calling me only I can't seem to break lose of whatever is stopping me and run fully in His Calling. So much weight of just needing MORE of Him in me so I may be transparent has sparked this prayer. I love GOD. I may not fully understand our GREAT AND VAST King but I know He is the living God and that He speaks to me and He loves me and I have NEVER gone without bread as His child. He is real you guys! He is right here with me and oh, do I pray that He loves what He sees and hears from me. 


I want to serve Him out of full response to the LOVE I have for Him. I want to be seen more and more LIKE HIM and less and less like CHETREANNA. I want HIS BEAUTY. HIS KINGDOM. HIS WILL. HIS CALLING. HIS REVELATION. I want it all you guys. I know that HE has so much more for me. But that brokenness, that surrender must take place and I pray that He moves soon and fast because I am soooo fed up and ready to soar on His wings. 


May we never grow complacent. May we never feel condemned in His grace. May we seek to be MORE like Him and never satisfied in anything BUT HIM.

I am not judging. I am not condemning this is truly my hearts plea and just a picture of where I am with God. I know He loves those who seek Him in truth so I just publicly come to HIM before sisters and brothers around this world and ask you to pray if you think of me. Pray for CONSUMPTION! :)

God has created you to not live a rigid lifestyle as a follower of HIM. He wants to grow you and take you so high with Him. He wants to renew and revive your soul so that you may have true JOY and HOPE on this earth of His. We will never be perfect but I pray that we would be in constant repentance as He reveals his ways to us. BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT OUR OWN.

I don't know how much sense I made but I know God sees through the fragment sentences and unnecessary capitalized words. Praise Him for another day. Loveyouall ♥

Romans 6: Fin! ♥

Yes, my dear reader(s). Romans 6 is finally finished. It's crazy.

A couple of weeks ago I was complaining about Romans being so difficult and going days without doing my devotions in it just because I didn't even feel like I understood what in the world I was reading. Thinking that and knowing that reading is useless if you don't understand what your reading I would just not open my bible unless at church or doing a particular study that asked questions where I needed to reference scripture. Throughout this time I was, however, praying for The Lord to transform our relationship in this area. I wanted to pick up His word and have the Holy Spirit speaking to me about the things that He wanted me to know about Him and myself in Him. So it is definitely not a surprise that I breezed through Romans6 with the Holy Spirit speaking loud and clear. 

Romans 6 is a chapter every christian, including myself, needs to have memorized and written on their hearts. It is this amazing chapter that breaks down our life that we now have as believers. What are lives should look like and the beautiful death that we should have suffered in being reconciled with God through Jesus Christ. I was convicted, encouraged and just set aflame in my prayer life because this chapter (like many) is where it is at! Crucified with Christ, it is no longer I that live but CHRIST that live in me. I am a walking vessel. I want desperately Lord for my body to be presented as a holy instrument for your use daily/hourly/minute/second...etc. I want to be USED. But if Che is still squirming around and living then how can Christ actually invade me in the amazing and supernatural way that He did the apostle Paul and so many others? There is nothing separating Che and Paul. The only difference is availability. So my prayer is just that. TO BE AVAILABLE. TO SIT AT HIS FEET. TO BE USED IN A EXTRAORDINARY WAY BECAUSE THAT IS WHAT GOD DESIRES TO DO WITH EACH AND EVERY TRUE BELIEVER AND WORSHIPPER! WE ARE ALL SPECIAL! WE ARE ALL PAULS, MATTHEWS, STEPHENS, PETERS, JOHNS in the sight of the Lord. Don't hold these men in any special place. Rise to the occasion. What has your Savior asked of you recently??? What has my savior asked of me... WHEW. This is fire guys.

I want Father, to live with the eyes of eternal life. To live with the heart of brokenness. Oh Lord, invade me. I can be really stupid, prideful in my SELF, belligerent in the intoxicating aroma of this worlds idols... I am weak... But I am also yours Lord. Please transform me Father and make me more like you that I may be a slave to the righteousness that is in Christ alone. I know I mess up and I am not praying for perfection by any means, I just pray to become more like you Father in every area of my life because I love you and I need you. Thank you for this life that is not mine. I am privileged to live for your good purpose.

Done away with the old ♥

Romans 6:6 "For we know that our old self was crucified with him so that the body of sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves to sin-"

Oh how freeing it is to look at this Holy Book and read and be spoken to today. How freeing to know that despite all of my sins and all of the ways that I myself have helped nail our Jesus to the cross that He still rose again to free me. He rose again to stand at the right hand of the Father and pray for me and you! What joy and satisfaction that brings to the common sinner. I say common lightly. Many of us, I having been one myself, like to think that we are somehow different than others. The truth is that we are all the same in the eyes of the Lord. No matter how "good" of a person you may feel that you are or how "bad" of a person you think you are. To the Lord you are either in love with Him or you or Not. You are a common sinner no matter what though and that is something to boast about in our God. That He sees us all the same. Some of us common sinners believe we stand on a platform higher or lower than our brothers and sisters in this world, however, that is not true. There is neither man nor female in the sight of the Lord; Neither Jew nor Gentile. For all have fallen short of the glory of God. ALL HAVE FALLEN SHORT.

My question is if the Lord sees us all the same, sinners, either saved or not saved (willing or unwilling) then who is it that tells you differently? Who is it that tells you your a good person and your just fine without God? Who is it that tells you your filth? Your trash and God can only use those who are worthy?? Well, from what He has written in His book it seems that those are the words of the same master. Yes, you have a master. As do I though I am perfectly joyful about the situation :). That is the word of Satan you have been listening to.

In Romans 6:6 we see that we are no longer "slaves" to sin in Christ. You are a slave to someone and if you are willfully denying the Creator of this Universe, the Living God to be your master then you are serving the Devil and it doesn't matter how Good you are or how happily Bad you are the master is the same. There are two forces at work in the spiritual realm. One of dark principalities and one of LIGHT. If you don't believe that, well by all means don't let me get in the way. But on the day of judgment you will stand alone and face the Creator who holds more power than the ruler of this perishing world. 

I beg you to no longer be a slave to sin. My sins were innumerable. I was heavily vain and struggled with bulimia, anorexia and other types of disorderly eating behaviors. I was depressed and bordered suicide all throughout my life from 6th grade to 19. I was lonely and felt quite mentally insane. I never fit in and every day felt like an act of some sort (hence why I love theater and being on stage). I put others above myself because I felt worthless. I mutilated my body and caused myself pain. I escaped from this reality through weed later in life at about 18. I had found my new god. The one who would save me. But marijuana only fed my other sins and kept me trapped in my head. I have been there. I know what you struggle with. I pray that the Lord speaks to you through this passage He has given me to write. I pray that you meet someone who witnesses to you the GOSPEL and that you would be transformed into His image living and serving HIM and not sin. I pray that you would pray for a relationship with Jesus Christ from the bottom of your heart and be baptized with His spirit who helps us and counsels us. I pray for you right now because that is all we can do at the end of this day.

And I beg you, please pray for me.

Feeling Dead ♥

Romans 6:4 "We were therefore buried with him though baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the father, we too may live a new life."

Excuse the blunt blog title but that is exactly what came to mind this morning. I am not going to sit here and put on the false pretense of understanding Romans with great ease. Oh no, this is something that I have struggled with accepting and also something that my pride is being broken of. 

Growing up in the earliest years I can only remember being an A student and constantly being acknowledged for the intelligence I possessed that made me a tad bit above average. However, although I eventually became a wreck from 7th grade onwards and never really got back on the right track with grades throughout High School, the mentality that I am above average never left me. Hence, this is how the smart___ that I was known to be the later years of adolescence came about.

Now that you have a brief history you can understand how I struggled and almost wanted to over look Romans. Chapter 1 and 2 were vicious and the apostle Paul, chief of sinners, does not hold back the knowledge he had of being raised and educated in the finer things in life. He was indeed a well learned man and it is displayed throughout the New Testament in his many writings. This is something that I have only recently come to accept. Paul can write in a way that makes me feel out of place. Less than mentally. And that my friends is one of my biggest fears.

I fear the perception of others in regards to me in a detrimental way at times. The Lord has brought me pretty far but I still struggle with wondering how I am being perceived. In early life I had my intelligence. That is what I clung to. Although it didn't show in my grades I was constantly feeding it. I was a searcher of answers and discoverer of truth. It was nice to come to class having not done my homework *except in math* and participate and debate the topics at hand. That was the rock I stood upon and it made me feel just a bit less secure and a lot more brilliant in the eyes of others. Romans is just something that Jesus used to reveal this to me. It has always been in me but when you are praying for the Lord to break you of all things not of Him, for God to reveal Himself within you, to be transformed more into His image... Well, your bound to start seeing the things about yourself that once were not bothersome as quite irritating.

I praise God for His Holy and living word the Bible. I praise Him for answering each and every prayer. He is swift to deliver guys, let me just tell you that. And today in Romans when I look at how I am being buried in the death of Christ so I may live in His resurrection I'm struck with the feeling that I just don't feel quite dead. I mean I know I am forgiven, sanctified by my belief, and justified by my faith but I feel as if I am in the grave unconscious and not FULLY DEAD. 

This is my hope as I press onward to the goal. This is my prayer today Dear Father. I want to be DEAD IN YOU fully. I want to be consumed in every endeavor and every ounce of my being Father. Show me my pride so I can pray to surrender it. Show me my barriers and hindrances in this walk of mine so I may grow in abounding grace through you. SHOW ME FATHER WHAT AND WHO YOU WANT ME TO BE!! Apart from you I am but dust Lord. Resurrect me in you so I may truly "live a new life" in you Lord Jesus.

Now I know He has already done great things but you guys I am a greedy little thing. I want more. I crave the Lords nearness and presence. I crave His healing powers. If you knew you had access to the Creator of this world who still lives wouldn't you be just a BIT needier than usual.

I ask you believer, or unbeliever, to utilize the beautiful tool we have in the power of Christ. Don't let your pride keep you from surrendering more of yourself to Him. Don't let your life be mediocre in living for the God of this universe. BE all you can be fully in Him and He will ROCK YOUR WORLD. It hurts to be refined but how else does one make precious metals such as gold?? Be broken for His healing powers and you will never regret the weakness within. 

Lord, I want to be dead. Thank you for showing me just how much I need you. Even when I at times think I am doing great and lacking nothing I thank you for showing me just how weak your creation is. I ask you to strip me of my pride and raise me up into the beautiful woman, future wife and mother that I will someday be. Teach me to use my gifts father for your glory. Transform my life Father! I am so overjoyed in who you are and what you plan to do with me. Thank you Lord for your death in which I am made alive.

Amen
