Gracious and loving God, you know the deep inner patterns of my life that keep me from being totally yours. You know the misinformed structures of my being that hold me in bondage to something less than your high purpose for my life. You also know my reluctance to let you have your way with me in these areas. Hear the deeper cry of my heart for wholeness and by your grace enable me to be open to your transforming presence through these sessions in Chicago.
Lord, have mercy.
Praying that this experience will be exactly as God wants it to be for you at this time and place in your life. I think of you often.
