Jesus Take Me as I Am, Make Me What You'd Have Me to Be

Mildred Windham
When Jesus found me I was lost and undone, but he loved me so much he forgave me of my trespasses. The bible says, we're all sinners and come short of the glory of God. But when he finds us and cleanses us we're free from sin.
We can't all be teachers and preachers, but God can use us if we'll let him. He has a work for each of us to do. It might be calling someone on the phone, sending a card, visiting, but we all can pray, I know we have busy schedules but when your driving, even at work, if you can't pray out loud, Jesus hears your unspoken words. He had rather us be on our knees, that shows humility, but when we can't, we can, at least say a word in faith for the hurting. The sick the broken hearted, broken homes -- .
We don't have to have excellence of speech or provocative words, just a humble prayer.
My prayer is, Lord use me, if it's in some small way to lift some ones load.
I'm nothing Lord, but such as I am I come.
