I’ve known what it’s like to be away from You, and it’s a lonely, painful existence. I don’t ever want to be in the dark again. Please don’t allow me to go back to that place. A place where all I can feel is longing and emptiness… where I face the world, always with a heavy heart. I can’t stand it.

I’ve felt what it’s like to be in Your presence. And it’s contentment and happiness beyond compare. I want to be inside Your light, all the time. When I’m there, even though I can feel all my problems, I become wrapped in hope and comfort. Even though I feel the pain, I can understand the necessity of it all. With you, I know that everything has a purpose, and that I have the strength to overcome anything. I want to be in Your presence, because with You, I feel safe and loved no matter what.

I need You. You’ve taken me out of the dark before, please don’t allow me to come back. I can’t do this on my own. Take my hand, and lead me, Lord. You know what’s best for me, and I trust You. Please, lead me to the right path. When I stray, gently lead me back to Your side because life away from You is unbearable. I owe everything to You. I owe my life, my soul, my everything… to You. I am NOTHING without YOU. You have ALL of me. I offer myself to You. And I will follow you wherever you will lead me. I love you so much, Jesus.
