Tomorrow I will be sharing my review of Untangled: Let God Loosen the Knots of Insecurity in Your Life
Father, I am a tangled mess. I’m struggling to feel like I matter. There are so many messages echoing in my mind that reinforce the belief that I’m not good enough. They’ve left me overwhelmed with feelings of worthlessness.
I know your Word clearly tells me of my immeasurable value, but I can’t seem to accept that it’s true. Would you deposit that truth deep in my heart?
I’m tired of feeling unimportant. I’m tired of feeling like I’ll never measure up. I’m tired of working so hard for approval and never getting it. My heart is weary, and I am desperate for the rest only you can provide.
The world has had me on the performance treadmill, making me work to prove my worth. I’m trying so hard to find significance in all the wrong places. And I realize now that I will never find my worth apart from you.
Would you please untangle me? I know you are the only One who can.
In the name of Jesus. Amen.
Today I am joining … Give Me Grace and Sunday Stillness and Spiritual Sundays and Scripture & A Snapshot .
Love this prayer, Joanne. And so needed to read it today. Looking forward to your book review!
Carey includes a beautiful prayer at the end of many of her chapters. The book brings such an encouraging word. I hope you get to read it, Holly.
Beautiful prayer Joanne. I love “untangle me,” Adding to my prayer journal. So many times I feel tangled – great choice of words.
Carey shares wonderful prayers at the end of several chapters. She brings a most encouraging word.
Lovely prayer! I often need the Lord to untangle me and the messes I get myself into. Thanks for visiting my blog this weekend!
So true, Kym. Most times, He’s the only One who can untangle my messes 🙂
