• A Prayer for Strength

    Heal me, I pray.
    
    Give me strength. 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 
     	Strength to keep trying 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 
     	Strength to keep moving 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 
     	Strength to heal through my own emotion 	 	 	 	 	 
     	Strength to try again, and again     	 	 	 	 	 	 
     	Strength to measure success 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 
     	By Your yardstick 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 
     	Strength to stop comparing myself 	 	 	 	 	 	 
     	Strength to stop criticizing myself   	 	 	 	 	 	 
     	Compassion for myself 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 
     	As I feel compassion for others
    
    Help me to see myself 	 
     	As a Soul in Service 
    Help me to do Your will 	 
     	One more day at a time 
    Help me to keep believing   
     	I can complete my Purpose.
    
    I know You are all-knowing
            Otherwise I'd wonder
            Why you thought I could do all this
            But--you know best
     
    I will keep doing
     	As Iʼve been given
            And give you thanks
            For the opportunity! 	 
    	
                                    I asked to be Your servant,
                                          And now I am.
                                    I asked to do Your will,
                                          And now I try.
                                    I asked to know my Purpose,
                                          And now I do.
                                    I asked to be Your hands and feet.
                                          And now I try to be.
                                    I asked to love You more.
                                          And it is so.

    So often I think, “Why me?	 	 	 	 	 	 	 
     	 	And then I realize, “Why not?”
