A Prayer

Lord grant me patience. Make me slow to anger and frustration. Make me bold but not rude.
Lord grant me wisdom. Let me look to you for guidance. Take away my ideas of the future and replace them with yours.
Lord make me humble. Show me how absurd my pride is. Let my confidence lie only in you and not in my weak, petty, selfish, pitiful, needy, un-compassionate, and tiny self.
Lord give me passion for things that matter and make me indifferent to things that don’t.
Lord let me be more aware of your work in the world. Let me see what you’re doing and praise you for it.
Lord, comfort me when I suffer. Teach me through it and make me more compassionate because of it.
Lord, take away my bitterness and cynicism. Soften my heart. Forgive me for this as well. Too often I find myself calling out among the scoffers.

All honor and glory to you Lord, Amen.
