Laying down my pride

So yesterday, as I was listening to one of my Jeremy Camp cd's I came across this song and the lyrics just screamed out to me. Here they are:

Every single word I say
You know it before I speak
You know every thought the deepest part of me
You draw me closer than I see
Your presence is every thing I need to be the child that you've created me to be
I'm ready now to see it your way

[Chorus]
I lay down my pride
My desires my demise
I'm ready now to see it your way
I'm done I'm through ignoring you
Now it's true
I'm kneeling at the cross of your grace
Lay down my pride

I was faced with passing time but I knew the choice was mine
To finally come to you and give you all control
I've wandered miles to find my way and then you revealed this simple faith
I know that you can see the secrets of my soul

[Bridge]
The cross
The blood you shed for me
Your back was ripped and bruised so I can know your love
I kneel I bow to you my King

As I was listening to this song, I kept thinking that the chorus was my prayer to God.

I lay down my pride
My desires my demise
I'm ready now to see it your way
I'm done I'm through ignoring you
Now it's true
I'm kneeling at the cross of your grace
Lay down my pride

This is what I have been thinking for the past few days. Laying down all that is me and gaining what is God.

So here I am God, I am laying down my pride, fears, desires, stresses, everything. I am laying them down at your cross and letting you come in the door of my heart. I want you to change me from the inside out. I want you to make me the child that you created me to be. So they are all yours God; not mine. They are at the foot of your cross and that is where I am leaving them.
