Break My Heart

Break My Heart

A Prayer To Be More For God …

I look around at the hurting faces; a sea of loneliness drifting through life on their own.  I question if I will ever make a difference.  The pain in their eyes breaks my heart. 

I want to be Your servant to the hurting.  I want to live out my life in a way that causes them to see You.  But I fail each day…I am consumed with my own doubts and fears.  I refuse to see through Your eyes because it hurts so much.

Oh, Lord, break my heart again.  Forgive me for my pride and selfishness.  My life is not my own.  I was bought with a price…Your Son’s life.  If it weren’t for Your grace, I would be the reflection of the faces I see.  It would be me…

I want to be Your hands and feet to the hurting.  I want to see the need and bless the needy.  I want to stop closing my eyes, refusing to be involved.  Break my heart again.

Even if the pain consumes me, break my heart again.  If I continue on my own, I am of no use to You.  My life is pointless if I am not touching others. 

Break my heart so I am of use to You again.  Open my eyes to Your will.  Help me invest my life even when it hurts…
