A prayer by Kay Warren... from her book Dangerous Surrender:
God, what you ask of me seems beyond my reach. I know I'm too protective of the Kingdom of Me. Part of me is ready to start living more for you than for myself, but part of me is desperately afraid. Please forgive me for living for myself. I've gotten really good at it. I see more and more clearly now that surrendering to you - denying myself, taking up my cross, and following you - is going to cost me. But because I know you made me to love me and you gave yourself for me, I am handing you the keys to the Kingdom of Me. Save me from myself.
