Jim Elliot
I have been reading Jim Elliot's journals this week, and have really enjoyed them so far. I just wanted to put up one of his entries. This is my prayer also- "Father, le me be weak that I might lose my clutch on everything temporal. My life, my reputation, my possessions, Lord, let me loose the tension of a grasping hand. Even, Father, would I lose the love of the fondling touch. Rather, open my hand to receive the nail of Calvary-as Christ's was opened-that I, releasing all, might be released, unleashed from all that binds me here."

Wow, what a moving prayer. I should pray such words more. Thank you for sharing this, Scott. God bless you.
