A Prayer

O God,
purify my heart, for I long to see more of You.

I've seen Your hand.
I've experienced a taste of Your love.
I've been given a glimpse of Your glory.

But I want to see more of You.

Purify my heart.
Cleanse me.
Reveal my sin.
Burn away my chaff.

I desire a deep cleansing.

Create in me a clean heart—
a new heart,
so that all that is left standing in me
is You.

I don't want to remember my sin.
I don't want to long for sinful things.

I seek You.
I seek Your will—Your perfect will.

Fix my mind in innocence.
My imagination in purity.

Lead me in truth.
Steady me with Your hand.

You are all I need.
You are all I want.

O God,
purify my heart,
for I long to see more of You.


Key Scripture

“Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.”
—Matthew 5:8


Takeaway Thought

Purity is not about restraint alone—it is about clarity of desire.
A pure heart longs for God above all else.
