I wrote down a prayer yesterday. It has been a while since I have done so. This is how it goes:
This Is My Prayer: My gracious and loving Father, I ask that you may fill me with your peace, strength, and love to move in your power rather than my own. My circumstance is heavy and only you Father can help me endure and persevere under the weight of this world. Grant me boldness and confidence to know that You are with me and that I am your son. May nothing else, no one else- including my very self- convince me otherwise. Whatever I may be doing, wherever I may be, remind me that you are with me and that you go before me. That you are at each house that I visit, that you are at each presentation, that you are guiding me. I know I can make an impact in the lives of the people that I see and interact with. Make me an encourager amongst the downcast, an uplifter of the fallen, a loving friend to the lonely. May people see my genuine heart and soul as I meet them and share about myself and life. I want my smile and kindness to lighten up the days of everyone else around me. In those times and moments where I find myself losing my patience and my peace, help me Lord to stop, breathe, and align myself under your power and peace that I need to love and succeed. There's so much that I dream to do and accomplish. I'm not weak, a loser, or a failure. I'm not these things because I'm your son and I want to keep you in my heart and in my life. I am strong. I am bold. I am confident. I am unashamed of who I am.The learning and growing never stops. There will be falls. There will be flops. Yet all I know is that my Father God is with me wherever I may go.
In thy strength, AMEN.
