God, please remove this barrier of sin between You and me. I want to come to You, but am always hindered. Like i cannot reach You even as i pray everyday. You want a clean, pure heart that is dedicated to You alone. Please help me have that, not only words of prayer, but a heart that follows hard after You. Soften the children's hearts that i can still witness as i try to reach out to them. Let me love and serve my family, Your church, others. Please give me a servant heart in these difficult situations.
