Popular song in 1988 “Lord I’m Available to You”
Lord, I'm available to You. My will I give to You. I'll do what You say do. Use me Lord to show someone the way and enable me to say. My storage is empty and I am available to You. Now I'm giving back to You all the tools You gave to me. My hands, my ears, my voice, my eyes. So You can use me as You please. I have emptied out my cup so that You can fill it up. Now I am free, and I just want to be more available to You.

Father God, I thank You, that if You can use anyone Lord, You can also use me. Today, I make myself available. Not because I’m so special or grand, but because You are. And You live in me. In Jesus' name Amen.
