Father please drop in to me what steps I need to take in my life.

I don't want what I want anymore, I want what you want. Your hand is the ONLY good hand I've seen/felt in my life.

It seemed serving you was the only thing I've been good at and my love has grown cold. I have to be honest with myself and you about where I'm at please help me, S.O.S I don't know what happened but I know I don't want to be here anymore please help me with this I'm willing to do my part and whatever that looks like just please meet me here I know you will if you want to.

I want my prayer life back so this is a start forgive me for my backsliding and complacency. I'm sorry I need to hear you again like I used to. I will pay the price!

- JACOB

John 3:16

For God so loved the world,

that he gave his only begotten Son,

that whosoever believeth in him should not perish,

but have everlasting life.
