Lord Christ, let me be nothing



Be my mirror, able to sort out the thoughts and intentions of my own sullied and sinful heart.
Please Lord Christ, liberate me from my own self.
By your spirit, help me not to evaluate, judge, or act.

Help me to be nothing, so that I may receive something.

Save me, Lord, from my own tyrannical ego, my own self,
my own tyrannical ego/self
-From my own judgments
-from my own opinions
-from my own feelings about everything, about anything

Through your Spirit - enable me to allow your love to guide and control my seemingly always undisciplined emotions.
May my own tyrannical emotions, and ego, my own self, may it die. 
Like the mystics say, may I “die before I die”.  
So that my life and my motives may be “born again”.

May my personhood and my “personality” be in direct continuity with your life, your love, your “mind”.
For I am created in Your Image. 

Who “I am” is a further breathing forth of the eternal and perfect “I AM WHO I AM” of the Creator.
May I constantly live out of your “being”, your consciousness. 

May you precede and perfect all I am doing and how I am acting.

Knowing that God, The Creator Himself actually took on human flesh to teach us our own identities— in Christ.

“I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. 

The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.” —Galatians 2:20
