A Prayer for Surrender

Lord Jesus, I see it. I see that I have added you to my life, but that I have not subtracted sin as you desire I should. Your gospel is the gospel of addition and subtraction - love and holiness. Deep in my soul I desire to repent, to add you at a new level of full surrender, and to prove my repentance to the world by what I do - by how I behave.  Fill me with the power of the Holy Spirit so that I can demonstrate a changed life to a weary world. Amen

by Pat Morley, from Walking with Christ in the Details of Life

PS - Take this for what it is... a plea to God for help in pursuing holiness... and not a false gospel of justification by works.
