Change

Change...how does it happen?

I do not like these thoughts, these feelings that manifest themselves in my heart. They disturb me. Why, after knowing so much grace, after knowing so much mercy, after freely receiving so much, am I so easily resentful, jealous, stingy, and angry?

God...please give me a vision of what I would be had You not rescued me.  Give me a vision of where I would be had I not been taught Your ways from an early age. And give me a vision of what this is now--this stuff in my heart--what it looks like to You.

Please, change my heart, O God,
