A Puritan Prayer!

O, Lord, open mine eyes and open mine heart: Lord, my heart is naturally locked up against Thy Word, there are wards in my heart that, except Thou art pleased to put in the key that may fit my heart, it will never open... Lord, I have often gone to Thy Word and the key hath stuck in my heart, and it hat not opened; but Lord, if Thou wouldest but fit it and turn it with Thine own hand, my heart would open.
Jeremiah Burroughs.
