Change Me

This morning, as I was praying, I asked God to help me to change. Immediately the Lord rebuked me in my spirit! That prayer showed my lack of faith! Help me change?!

Lord, forgive me of my lack of faith in you. It is not that you help me to change. You change me.

So I changed, and began praying anew. This time my prayer is, "Change my heart! Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit in me!"
