struggling with pride, unbelief, disobedience but wanting to love the Lord
Even admitting/confessing to ppl you do not know that ur prideful is hard, but God, that is exactly what i have to give up in this life. There is nothing to boast except in what the Lord is doing. Please have mercy on me, who cry out again and again, but still sin again and again. Set me free from this stronghold, and the children too, i implore. I havent been a helpmeet, not been responsible as i thought i'd been, and now reaping the consequences. Ur just at the end of ur rope, knowing uv been so wrong, but how to make up for yrs of sin. Forgive me, I plead for mercy, and faith again to step forward from being stuck in the mire. God, please help overcome.. this weak, helpless, hateful sinner that i am, and love by serving others.

RE: struggling with pride, unbelief, disobedience but wanting to love the Lord
It was said, What does it profit a man if he gains the world but loses his soul? True, what is a little or big wealth, fame, even good health and other idols, if we do not really surrender to the Lord? Help us to listen and to obey, learning to trust in the journey of life. How desperate, how frustrated we often may be, but we have no one to run to. Grant, Lord, as we beseech Thee, hear us as we cry out and live as you would have us, not as we think we should. Deliver us from hidden and willful sins, from deceitful hearts and minds that make us stray.

We know the love of money is the root of evil. But knowingly or not, its our pride that makes us jealous or envious of others who have what we do not. Whether thats time, gifts, resources, kids. Forgive our pride, our unbelief that God is sovereign no matter who or what we are, and our disobedience brought on by our rebellious hearts and minds. Renew our life Lord Jesus, in Your mercy and goodness. i am at the end of my rope, when i know should be trusting in Your name and not on horses and chariots, people or whatever. Lord God, please hear us.
