The Pit

Lord,

When I am faced with choices that would cause me to fall into the pit, help me to choose You instead.


And if I do choose other things, other attentions, or other beings over You, please help me not to be crushed by the weight of sin but rather to turn back to You, calling out your name for safe delivery home. 


I know, Lord Jesus, that you heal my soul when I return to You.  My mind and my body sometimes are left broken.  Help me to use that brokenness for further healing, learning, and to turn them inward so that I realize that it is in my hurts that I am most fortunate to be able to cling to You. 


Amen
