a praying for searching

Father,

You have given us the ability to know our true self.

But it's our false self we often default to.

The self that falls into our desire to control, our mistrust of You, our desire to be seen as good and acceptable, our fear. The self that does not remember who You've created us to be.

You have made us new creations, and yet we don't always stand in that truth. So help us search.

Lord, may we seek to find our true self in You. May we know the righteousness of Jesus that has been placed on us. Teach us to trust in who You are, and remember all of the promises You've already kept. And those you've still to give.

Help us not be afraid of the searching, afraid of what it will expose, or who will see us in our search and what they will see. For you are our Creator and Sustainer, and we stand in the knowledge of Your love and acceptance of us.

Amen
