For June 3rd:

“In him we were also chosen, having been predestined according to the plan of him who works out everything in conformity with the purpose of his will,…” Ephesians 1:11

My God, my heart and flesh cry out! I hurt. I am in such confusion. Lord, I want so badly to live comfortably and consistently in your peace. God, I cry out for your restoration. Come, bring your love to me. Fill me with your purity so that I might experience your joy. Forgive me for my foolishness. I ask that you would prevail in me. God, I feel as if I am being sucked into a sea of lies coming from myself. I desperately need your truth. I need your grace. Lord, I need your mercy. Please have mercy on me; on my soul. I am weary and desperately need rest. Lord, I don't deserve you, but you love me still. I am nothing without you and, I confess that this burden is too heavy for me. So, take all of me. I surrender. How is it that you long for me? Me, a confused and selfish person. God you are so wonderful. You are merciful and ever gracious. You have no bounds. You are beautiful and holy and righteous and good. God, my King, my Redeemer, my Abba Father, my Prince of Peace, my Lord, I love you. I am yours.
