Psalm 139:23-24

Search me. O Lord, and know my heart.

Lord, look into the crevices of who I am.
Lord, shine a light beam into what
makes me tick.

Father, expose my sin for what it is.
Those hurtful words I spout.
Those mean-spirited actions I perform.
Those self-serving ideas I have.

Father, let me see myself as You see me--good or bad.


Test me and know my anxious thoughts.

Assess me, challenge me, examine me.

Please help me when I feel uneasiness.
Stand with me when I am fearful.


See if there is any offensive way in me.

Lord, please analyze my inner being and search
for anything that You don’t approve of.

Jesus, then show me the things You don’t like in
me--things that sadden You.

Lead me in the way everlasting.

Instruct me how to live for You so I
can live with you in Heaven.
