I can\u2019t stay focused on my Lord long enough to hear His voice guiding me through this life.  I\u2019m so caught up in this world and my heart is so anxious it\u2019s hard to concentrate on My God.   I need God to incline my heart towards His will for my life.  I need my Lord to take charge of His servant and help me keep His commands, statutes and judgments.

I need to partner up with my God and have Him guide me each day.  I need to ask for His assistance in living a godly life and to help me each day keep His commandments.  I need a change of heart that only my Lord can accomplish and I want it to be dedicated to Him.<\/p>\n<p>Prayer:  Dear Lord incline my heart to your will.  I have no strength in my own, please take charge and tell me what to do and how to do it.  I\u2019ve tried to live this life without you and it\u2019s impossible and I don\u2019t want to try any longer.
