Dear Jesus,

Please forgive me for my sins. If there are sins I am not aware of, please point them out to me so I may repent. I want to be made clean. I know that I have a problem following the deisres of my own heart, and that blocks me from hearing your will for my life.
I only want your will. I am desperate to hear from you on a daily basis. Please speak to me so I know what you want me to do. I only want to please you and not myself. Help me to get out of the way of your will.
I know I am stubborn in obedience if it means giving something up for you. I want you to remove that stubbornness from my spirit so that I will be quick to obey. I need you more than the air I breathe and I love you. I can't do anything without you directing my every step.
I promise to always obey if you will just tell me what to do in a way that only I can understand.
I feel like I have not had a sanctified and circumcised ear. I need to stop running to others on what I should do about things. I need to run to you before I seek confirmation elsewhere.
Please forgive me for being unsure of myself and unsure of you. All I ask is that you speak to me and make me clean and renewed each day. And last but not least, make my motives your motives so that I don't have a chance to follow the desires of my own heart.

Love,
Heather
