A prayer of integrity

Amaziah was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem twenty-nine years………… He did what was right in the eyes of the LORD, but not wholeheartedly. 2 Chronicles 25:1-2


I pray that as I serve my Lord that I would do it with all my heart. That on my epitaph it would simply be written here lies Olu Jegede, a disciple of Christ who followed Christ faithfully until his end.

Amaziah, and many other kings of Judah and Israel had the opposite written on their biblical epitaph. They sought God, and something in addition.
Lord let me be singleminded, whole, one…only focused on you.
Amen
