Eyes on the Prize

I started the year running straight towards building a greater relationship with God. I had my Eyes on the Prize and that is to commit myself to the Lord our God.

I was committed to build my prayer and devotional life and fully connect with God everyday. I wanted to know Him more, I wanted to follow his ways. I was running on His direction.

Then, without me knowing, when life got too busy with all the office deadlines, household chores, bills to pay, car maintenance and relationship concerns. I was slowing down. Not only that, I was running on a different direction. I had my eyes on a different prize. I had my eye on different solutions to fix my problems.

I forgot the goal. I forgot the direction to connect with God. I was running on a track that led nowhere. Everything feels heavy. I am almost out of breath.

I need to stop and look for Him. I needed to go back and keep my eyes on Him.

My Heart Letter to God ~ Feb 21

Dear God,

I am lost. I am tired. I need your help.

Please put me back on track to follow your ways. I want to run to you. I want to run for you.

Fill my heart with the grace that will endure despite all the challenges I have today. Let me persevere and remember that you love me. Reveal to me my purpose, make me move to the direction you want me to go. Help me carry out your will.

Kindly lead me back to your ways Lord. You are our God. I want to follow you. Teach me to be humble, teach me to be godly. Have a place in my heart Lord. Come into my life.

Help me build my relationship with you and if it is your will, let it be done to me according to your word.

Amen
