Dear God

Me: Help me to take your path, Lord!

Prodigal: Amen

This is from Richard J. Foster

Dear God,

I stand against the fear

that makes me want to manage and control others.

Grant me the gift of faith, O Lord, to overcomes my fear.

I stand against the greed

that makes me use others for my own selfish purposes.

Grant me a spirit of generosity, O Lord, to temper my greed.

I stand against the pride

that drives me to seek inordinate attention.

Grand me the grace of service, O Lord, to conquer my pride.

May faith, hope and love

have increasing sway over every thought and action.

Amen

Testifying both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ. Acts 20:21 (KJV)
