Not Sure If I Should Publish This

By | August 13, 2004

Dear Lord,

I need You. Grant me a spirit of brokenness. I need more of this. I need your help. Help me to trust You, O Lord!

Lord, I am insecure. Help me to get my security from you. Help me to have faith in your loving kindness. Give me faith to trust your goodness. Grant me patience Lord to live life in your timing.

Help me to trust You, O Lord! Grant me faith and grace. Your grace is sufficient for me!

Help me to trust You, that You will work in the lives of my church and family.

Help me to trust You, Lord, that You LOVE me!

O! The promise; all things work together for those who love God, to those he has called to his good purposes!

Lord, help me to remember the cross and preach the gospel to myself.

Transform me from being so self-centered, and worrying about my future, my life and me me me. Help me to pray for my friends, family, church, and not just see the temporary. Your glory is what I should live for!

Please give me wisdom Lord. I have no clue what I will be doing in my life years from now. Nor do I know how to process my feelings. Lord, you promise to give wisdom to those who seek it. My future, is in your hands.

Lord, teach me to love! I don’t know how to love. Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeding, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Lord, teach me to love!

That your son would die for me! This was the greatest demonstration of your love. I really don’t need anything else! Grant me peace and joy from knowing you. Your love, O Lord, reaches to the heavens, your faithfulness to the skies……..
