I surrender

I've asked God countless times for things. For healing, for refocusing, for help, and some times I get discouraged because I don't feel like He listens. But time and time again the Lord puts Psalms 37:4 on my heart. "Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart." I keep asking for things and in turn put those needs or wants in front of Him. God makes it simple, put Him first and He'll take care of the rest. All I need to do is give up control to Him and He'll give me what I desire most. 
Lord, this is my problem. I've taken all of the control away from you and consequently watched my life spiral. Forgive me for my selfishness. Take control of my life and lead me where you want me to go. I surrender to your plans and discard my agenda.
