Can you pray this same prayer?

Charles Spurgeon was saved Jan. 6, 1850, and on Feb. 1 he wrote the following prayer: “O great and unsearchable God, who knowest my heart, and triest all my ways; with a humble dependence upon the support of Thy Holy Spirit, I yield up myself to Thee; as Thy own reasonable sacrifice, I return to Thee Thine own. I would be for ever, unreservedly, perpetually Thine; whilst I am on earth, I would serve Thee; and may I enjoy Thee and praise Thee for ever! Amen.”

Can you pray that prayer? If not, make yourself right with God. Wishing you much love and much light.
