Good morning, Lord, please fill us with hunger and thirst for You and Your righteousness, please purge us of that which takes space You desire to occupy in our hearts. Forgive us for filling ourselves with things which distract us from You and Your will, that will You desire us to accomplish each day. We long to be honest and earnest and undistracted, but we are so easily knocked off course, please help us break the chains of poor habits, so we can worship You consistently, with unfettered hearts and holy hands, we pray in Jesus' name, amen.
