Lord,

I want to learn to live as Jesus lived. Teach me to leave the things behind that he left.

Help me to learn to abandon all that has made my life noisy and comfortable. I am committed to learn to depend on you as I’ve never had to before.

I want to touch the poor. Break my heart with the things that break yours.

I want to learn to live on little. Teach me contentment and thanksgiving.

Help me to be a safe and grace-filled place for my teammates.

May I press into community when I’m tempted to withdraw.

Make me the world changer that you intended me to be. Give me the eyes of faith to see myself as you see me.

I’ve got one life to live. I commit to making it the radical life that you modeled.

Amen
