Romans 12:2: Wrinkles & Creases


Lord, I am wrinkled like a garment that has been worn all day. Please gently steam those wrinkles from me with your Holy Spirit. Penetrate each fiber of my being, moisten them with your warm, living water, and loosen the individual kinks and twists that make up those wrinkles. Straighten them out, remove them. Unwrinkled me.

But don’t stop there. Please put your sharp creases into me. Use the starch of your Spirit and the iron of your Word to make them last, so that they are not replaced by new wrinkles.

In Jesus' name, amen.
