Prodigal: I am going to pray before I start work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Me: Yes, the Lord can help us in our work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is from the book Out Live Your Life by Max Lucado<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

O Lord, nobody lies beyond the grasp of your grace. Who in my life do I see as hopeless? What man or woman who currently seems far from you do you want to bring into your family, in part through me? What Saul is out there to whom I could become Ananias? Father, I pray that you would show your greatness and your power by using me in some way to introduce an “unlikely candidate” to your son. Help me triumph over my fears and obliterate my misconceptions as you work through me to bring someone else, through faith, into the circle of your love. In Jesus’ name I pray, amen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I was shown mercy so that in me, the worst sinners, Christ Jesus might display his unlimited patience as an example for those who would believe on him and receive eternal life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
