A Prayer About Giving Vs. Taking Precious
Lord, Wonderful Savior, Gracious Heavenly Father,
Let me never count the cost of giving.
Let me never wonder what I might receive in return for what I give.
When love is needed, let it flow from me with no thought for myself.
When forgiveness is needed, never let me look back and count the cost of
the infraction, Remind me there is no counting of the cost.
When forgiveness is needed, let me forgive freely and openly.
When the wants and needs of my own life impinge upon me and make me want
to hold back what I can give, let me move forward and give in excess.
When the pressures and commitments of my life cause me to forget your
place in my life, send a reminder so I will remain holy and attuned to
your will for me.
Whenever I feel the urge to take, inspire me to give.
Whenever I start to think of myself, inspire me to think of you and of
others.
Whenever I am called to give, let me give beyond what I believe I have,
knowing you who created all I own and all I am.
In all I say and do, may you be glorified.
I love you, O Lord.
I adore you, Precious One.
All these things I humbly pray.
In the name of God the Father, Jesus Christ the Son, and the Holy Spirit
who lives within me and touches me, Amen. |
