Dear Lord, hear our prayer:

Glorious God, Abba, Father, Creator of all that is, ever was and ever will be, we come humbly yet boldly before Your throne because we belong to You and acknowledge You are our everything. You created us. You did so in Your likeness so that we might have a relationship with You on all levels. You alone fill that need in our hearts, that longing that can only be filled by Your presence; by Christ abiding in us as we abide in Him to Your glory. Continue to mold us, shape us and continue the creation process until we become the image You desire each and everyone to be in You. Help us cope through the refining process and help us to remember that the joys of the finished product will far outweigh any pain along the way. In Christ Jesus, the image we desire to be, in His name we pray.

Amen and AMEN.
