A Prayer About Passion

A prayer about Passion

When my passion for God has waned

Lord God,

My passion for following you has lessened. I find that my mind and heart are often focused on something else—any new thing in my life that seems fresh and exciting. I really don’t want to move away from you; I want to be near you! Lord, I know that if what I’m most excited about is not what you want in my life, my passion for you will quickly die. Please help me. Give me the self-discipline to control my thoughts and help me to return my focus to you. I know that when I focus on you, I will again respond to you with joy. You will restore me.

You must continue to believe this truth and stand firmly in it. Don’t drift away from the assurance you received when you heard the Good News. Colossians 1:23
