Lord, I offer You my life.

So use it for Your glory.

==========================

Here's a song that my mom has been looping (you know what they say... like mother; like daughter) recently. It's been edifying me too, so I thought I'd share. It's such a wonderful prayer in song.

Thank You for giving me another day.
Thank You for permitting me another day, yet again.
Help me to not live worthlessly.

I do not deserve your Grace;
Your kindness is my only strength.
Thank You for permitting me another day.

Help me to be honest today.
Help me to be kind today.
Help me to exercise mercy on all who I meet.
Help me to be gentle today.
Help me to be humble today.
Help me to forgive those who create these weary steps of mine.

Thank You for giving me another day.
Thank You for permitting me another day, yet again.
Thank You for joys and sorrows.

Even if this one day causes me tears,
I shall not bear resentment;
For my Lord, according to His sovereign purpose,
Works all things unto good.

Help me to be at peace today.
Help me to be strong today.
Even in the midst of wailing storms, help me to delight in Your rest.
Help me to be faithful today.
Help me to obey today.
Help me to be gracious towards those who cause pain in my heart.
Help me to pray for their well-being;
Help me to bless them.


==========================

What joy it is to know the joy of surrender.

Thank You.
